Thought for the Day





“Buddy Holly was twenty-two.  Think of what he might have gone on to achieve.  I mean, if Beethoven had been killed in a plane crash at twenty-two, the history of music would have been very different.  As would the history of aviation, of course.”

Tom Stoppard, The Real Thing
