Hey BJ,

What a great line!

I had never thought of a good personal text to add to my Decware profile until I saw your Einstien quote below.  I'd like to borrow some of it unless you want to use it in your profile. It says a lot about this time in my life.

Be My Guest Tony, my personal quote comes indirectly paraphrased from Pete Townshend
It's All In One Note. Listen
From the song  "Pure and Easy" https://youtu.be/zkB-3253mqw

"Pure and Easy" is Townshend's concept that life can arise from a single note.  Many of the Lifehouse songs were folded into the album Who's Next. "Pure and Easy" failed to make the cut for Who's Next, perhaps because more than any of the Lifehouse songs, it gave voice to two of the central notions he was able to explain about the project...that rock music could change the world, and that it was important that the performance bring the audience to a point of transcendence every night. A snippet of "Pure and Easy" became the coda to "The Song is Over". The song  captures Townshend's philosophies with power and eloquence..."Once there was a note, pure and easy,playing so free like a breath rippling by,the note is eternal, I hear it, it sees me,forever we blend and forever we die". As Townshend is struck by the beauty of this single note, he finds himself struggling to translate it to the world through his songs ..."I listened and I heard, music in a word,and words when you played your guitar". It is right there that he is telling us that music (in this case from a guitar) comes to us as actual words. Fascinating. As the world grows and the note becomes more corrupted with the passage of time, Townshend brings himself back to a final message, simple but all encompassing..."There once was a note,listen".

I was surprised to learn this fascinating fact about Einstein's life that I was previously unaware of.
