Our riches, being in our brains, die with us... Unless of course someone chops off our head, in which case, we won't need them anyway. - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Will mich Deutschland, mein geliebtes Vaterland, worauf ich (wie Sie wissen) stolz bin, nicht aufnehmen, so muß in Gottes Namen Frankreich oder England wieder um einen geschickten Deutschen mehr reich werden,- und das zur Schande der deutschen Nation.

The human voice vibrates naturally - but in such a way - to such a degree that it all sounds beautiful - it is the nature of the voice. We imitate such effects not only on wind instruments, but also with violins - even on clavier - but as soon as you go beyond the natural limits, it no longer sounds beautiful - because it is contrary to nature.

Some fellow built a house here and wrote on it:
When I built my house I was very glad,
when I knew its cost I got very sad.
(During the night somebody scribbled right under it:)
Building a house takes a lot of loot,
and you should have known it,
you nincompoop.
