"Every time, it's a miracle. All these worries, all this hatred and all these desires, all this turmoil, this whole year with its trivialities, its minor and major events—this whole life we drag ourselves through, made up of cries and tears, laughter, struggles, breakups, dashed hopes, and unexpected opportunities; it all suddenly disappears when the choir begins to sing. The flow of life is drowned out by the song. Suddenly there is a sense of brotherhood, of deep solidarity, even of love, and it washes away the ugliness of everyday life in a perfect communion. (...) When the choir stops, everyone cheers, their faces aglow, the choir members beaming. It’s so beautiful. In the end, I wonder if the true movement of the world isn’t singing.” (Excerpt from The Elegance of the Hedgehog by M. Barbery.)
