The Posthorn (dialogue)
Horn Player:
Is not the sounding of a horn to our busy souls (even as the scent of blossoms wilted long ago, or the discolored folds of musty tapestry, or crumbling leaves of ancient yellowed tomes) like a sonorous visit from those ages which counted speed by straining horses’ gallop, and not by lightening prisoned up in cables; and when to live and learn they ranged the countryside, not just the closely printed pages? The cornucopia’s gift calls forth in us a pallid yearning, melancholy longing.
Pianist:
The old is good not just because it’s past, nor is the new supreme because we live with it, and never yet a man felt greater joy than he could bear or truly comprehend. Your task it is, amid confusion, rush, and noise to grasp the lasting, calm, and meaningful, and finding it anew, to hold and treasure it.
