HIM: Who the devil knows? Chance throws them out to you, and they stay with you. Still, when we doesn't know everything, we don't know anything well. We don't know where something is going or where something else comes from, where this or that should fit, which should go first or whether it would be better to go second.

 they'll know something about the grammar, literature, history, geography, and morality which they're teaching her in her lessons? That's just a song and dance, my dear sir, a song and dance. If they grasped these matters well enough to teach them, they wouldn't be teaching them. ME: Why not? HIM: Because they would have spent their lives studying them.

Only after twenty or thirty years of practice did my uncle glimpse the first faint light of musical theory. ME: Oh you idiot, you total idiot! How is it that in your wretched head there are such reasonable ideas all mixed up higgledy piggledy with so many absurdities? E AGAIN AND THESE TEACHERS YOU HOPE THEY'LL KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT THE GRAMMAR LITERATURE HISTORY GEOGRAPHY AND MORALITY WISH THEIR'RE TEACHING HER AND HER LESSONS THAT'S JUST A SONG AND DANCE MY DEAR SIR A SONG AND DANCE IF THEY GRASPED THESE MATTERS WELL ENOUGH TO TEACH THEM THEY WOULDN'T BE TEACHING THEM ME NOT HIM BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE SPENT THEIR LIVES STUDYING THEM IT'S NECESSARY TO BE PROFOUND IN ART OR IN SCIENCE IN ORDER TO GRASP THE BASICS WELL EDUCATIONAL WORKS CAN ONLY BE PROPERLY PRODUCED BY THOSE WHO HAVE GROWN WHITE IN HARNESS IT'S THE MIDDLE AND END WHICH ILLUMINATE THE SHADOWS AT THE BEGINNING ASK YOUR FRIEND MISTER D'ALEMBERT THE LEADING LIGHT IN MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES IF HE WOULD BE TOO GOOD TO TEACH THE BASICS ONLY AFTER TWENTY OR THIRTY YEARS OF PRACTICE DID MY UNCLE GLIMPSE THE FIRST FAINT LIGHT OF MUSICAL THEORY ME OH YOU IDIOT YOU TOTAL IDIOT HOW IS IT THAT IN YOUR WRETCHED HEAD THERE ARE SUCH REASONABLE IDEAS ALL MIXED UP HIGGLY PICKLITY WITH SO MANY ABSURDITIES
