"The famous French writer Romain Rolland describes how restless Beethoven was in his youth. From early childhood, Beethoven used to hear melodies. He would say that there was an orchestra hidden somewhere-under the table, behind the curtain, in the attic, or in the oven. He always heard beautiful melodies playing, and he thought it was somewhere outside of himself. The orchestra was indeed an orchestra. But it was hidden in him, not outside of him.” -Rabbi Joseph Soloveitchik
Inside each of us is something truly grand waiting to be released. It is a gift from God.
