Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like the violin...

"The perfect blossom is a rare thing. You could spend your life looking for one,

and it would not be a wasted life."

"I know a girl who cries when she practices violin because each note sounds 

so pure it just cuts into her, and then the melody comes pouring out her eyes. 

Now, to me, everything else just sounds like a lie."
