  • It is amazing how soon one becomes accustomed to the sound of ones voice, when forced to repeat a speech five or six times a day.

  • In all technai or arts (medicine perhaps most of all), there is a self-exhilaration on the part of the practitioner (the intoxication of the ego with its own potency) which is infectious: the patient enjoys a placebo-effect which redounds to the ego of the "artist."

    Blue   Sky   Air  
    Guy Murchie (2016). “Song of the Sky”, p.299, Pickle Partners Publishing

So that was early on, we conceived of like that should be a musical moment [in Maona].
