Excerpt from Music Explained to the World: Or How to Understand Music and Enjoy Its Performance

But time is precisely that which we have the least at command, in the course of life, especially in the present high state of civilization. Obliged to learn a multitude of things, we can give but very slight atten tion to each, and we are compelled to select those which will be most useful in the business of life. The arts, considered as recreations, or sources of pleasure, are among those objects, with which, in general, we become acquainted only as we pass along through life. And of which every one thinks himself a competent judge by nature, and without study; not that one would not like to have correct ideas concenning them.
