A FAMOUS COMPOSER

ONE DAY, A YOUNG MAN WENT TO VISIT A FAMOUS COMPOSER AND ASKED HIM FOR ADVICE ON HOW TO
COMPOSE A SYMPHONY.
“HOW OLD ARE YOU?” THE COMPOSER ASKED.
“EIGHTEEN.”
“I THINK THAT YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO COMPOSE A SYMPHONY, THEN,” THE COMPOSER TOLD
HIM, “TRY SOMETHING EASIER.”
“BUT YOU COMPOSED SYMPHONIES WHEN YOU WERE EIGHT,” PROTESTED THE YOUNG
MAN.
“YES,” AGREED THE FAMOUS COMPOSER, WHO WAS MOZART, “BUT I DID NOT ASK ANYONE HOW
TO COMPOSE THEM.”
