Beautiful thought


This engraved panel is in the gardens of St George's Bristol. I've been going there for the best part of four years, but only just noticed this beautiful quote, by the Czech composer Janácek. It comes from one of the love letters he wrote to Kamila Stösslová, the younger woman with whom he became besotted after years of marriage, and who inspired many of his greatest musical works.
