“Our peasant music, naturally, is invariably tonal, if not always in the sense that the inflexible major and minor system is tonal. (An "atonal" folk-music, in my opinion, is unthinkable.) Since we depend upon a tonal basis of this kind in our creative work, it is quite self-evident that our works are quite pronouncedly tonal in type. I must admit, however, that there was a time when I thought I was approaching a species of twelve-tone music. Yet even in works of that period the absolute tonal foundation is unmistakable.” IfsKindSelfOpinionCreativeTypeDependsPeriodsMajorsBasesAbsolutesFoundationSpeciesFolksToneWorking ItTwelveMinorsEvidentPeasantsUnthinkableCreative WorkFolk Music Author:Bela Bartok
“A man's usefulness depends on his living up to his ideals insofar as he can. It is hard to fail but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune, make for a finer, nobler type of manhood. Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life.” MenHardJoyDiesFailingDutyTypeDependsFitSucceedIdealsIronEnduranceMisfortunesDaringManhoodUsefulnessJoy Of LifeDo Not Fear Book:Theodore Roosevelt's America: Selections from the Writings of the Oyster Bay Naturalist Source: Theodore Roosevelt's America: Selections from the Writings of the Oyster Bay Naturalist

“Thus you see, most noble Sir, how this type of solution to the Königsberg bridge problem bears little relationship to mathematics, and I do not understand why you expect a mathematician to produce it, rather than anyone else, for the solution is based on reason alone, and its discovery does not depend on any mathematical principle.” LittlesDoeReasonProblemPrinciplesProduceTypeDependsBearsSolutionsDiscoveryMathematicsNobleMathematicalBridgesMathematicianEuler Author:Leonhard Euler
“Sometimes the music just has to tell the story without you trying to tell the story. It depends on the type of music you want to make. If it makes you feel good and party then you go with that.

“It depends as there's many different types of chefs, some who cook for awards and others who cook to make their restaurant a great business. There are those who cook for a lifestyle, they'll have come through pubs and they like to have the connection to the farmers and the chickens and the natural produce. So for each chef it'll be slightly different.” DifferentNaturalProduceTypeDependsConnectionsLifestyleCooksRestaurantsChickensAwardsFarmersChefPubsGreat Business Author:Paul Rankin
