“Adele Adkins' retro-soul debut, '19', was striking less for her songs than for that voice: a voluptuous, slightly parched alto that swooped and fluttered like a Dusty Springfield student trying to upstage her teacher, or at least update the rules.” TryingSoulSongVoiceTeacherStudentsDebutUpdatesVoluptuousRetro Author:Will Hermes
“Art is a thing so much of the imagination, of the soul, that it is difficult to descend to the fundamentals of technique and yet make it plain to the student that these are but the 'means' and not an end in themselves.” MeanArtSoulEndsDifficultImaginationStudentsArt IsFundamentalsTechnique Book:Carlson's Guide to Landscape Painting Source: Carlson's Guide to Landscape Painting
“The Talmud tells a story about a great Rabbi who is dying, he has become a goses, but he cannot die because outside all his students are praying for him to live and this is distracting to his soul. His maidservant climbs to the roof of the hut where the Rabbi is dying and hurls a clay vessel to the ground. The sound diverts the students, who stop praying. In that moment, the Rabbi dies and his soul goes to heaven. The servant, too, the Talmud says, is guaranteed her place in the world to come.” WorldSoulMomentsStoriesDiesHeavenSoundDyingStudentsPrayingServantClimbsThat MomentRoofClayVesselPlaces In The WorldRabbiHuts Author:Jonathan Rosen
