knows
We know others to the extent that we know ourselves.

A mistake is always forgivable, rarely excusable and always unacceptable.
music audience ifs
If the audience doesn't hear what is going on, is it going on?
silence sound quiet
Quiet is the absence of sound. Silence is the presence of silence.
The perception of the audience is the interesting part. If the audience doesn't hear what is going on, is it going on or not?
thinking our-world shapes
The way we describe our world shows how we think of our world. How we think of our world governs how we interpret our world. How we interpret our world directs how we participate in the world. How we participate in the world shapes the world.
thinking people facts
Usually people think that it is the musicians who create the music, but in fact it is music who creates the musicians.
I'd say that what we hear is the quality of our listening.
mean names individuality
In terms of an identity, an identity reflects an individuality, by definition. And, if there is a quality present, it is recognizable and it can be named. If you can't name it, it means you don't recognize it.
art maturity musician
To me, art is the capacity to experience one's innocence: craft is how you get to that point. Maturity in a musician would be the point at which one is innocent at will. At that point the relationship between music and the musician is direct and reliable. The relationship with music is always mysterious: when it works, you can never tell. You can never guarantee when it's going to work. You can only to put yourself in a place where it's more likely to happen.
