William Butler Yeats Quotes
We cannot doubt that barbaric people receive such influences more visibly and obviously, and in all likelihood more easily and fully than we do, for our life in cities, which deafens or kills the passive meditative life, and our education that enlarges the separated, self-moving mind, have made our souls less sensitive.

So it is really about trying to develop ideas and trying to have a consistent focus on a way to come up with new ideas in music that I want to do.
