“Conversation in its happiest development is a link, equally exquisite and adequate, between mind and mind, a system by which men approach one another with sympathy and enjoyment, a field for the finest amenities of civilization, for the keenest and most intelligent display of social activity. It is also our solace, our inspiration, and our most rational pleasure. It is a duty we owe to one another; it is our common debt to humanity.”

And those are often the moments that are the seeds of inspiration.

One thing we have to practice is recognizing when it happens, and recording that moment so we can come back to it.”

That narrative then becomes today's seed and can then take root in music terms, where a sonic tree begins to grow.”
