Listening to the C minor mass now I realized that it's Wolfie's (that sounded really terrible) birthday tomorrow and I urge everyone - or at least Monica, Eunice, Matt, and anyone else who found it worthwhile to stay up till 3:30 in the morning the night before Once and Future Project presentations watching The Movie That Got Pushed Back to Give Way to 8 1/2 - to watch Amadeus in celebration. No movie is more relevant to Creativity, Mystery, Creative Mystery, the Mystery of Creativity, and the likes.

And so I quote, insetad of Peter Shaffer's Amadeus because I can't find it, Pushkin's Mozart and Salieri:

These are tears
I’ve never shed before: painful but welcome,
As if I had discharged a heavy debt,
As if the healing knife had cut away
A throbbing limb. Mozart, dear friend, these tears...
Pay them no mind. Play on, play on, make haste,
And saturate my soul with sounds!
