Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward.

In a hurry, can't stop. Here's a poem! Dawn William Carlos Williams Ecstatic bird songs pound the hollow vastness of the sky with metallic clinkings-- beating color up into it at a far edge,--beating it, beating it with rising, triumphant ardor,-- stirring it into warmth, quickening in it a spreading change,-- bursting wildly against it as dividing the horizon, a heavy sun lifts himself--is lifted-- bit by bit above the edge of things,--runs free at last out into the open--!lumbering glorified in full release upward-- songs cease.
