The best way of forgetting how you think you feel is to concentrate on what you know you know.
To remember love after long sleep; to turn again to poetry after a year in the market place, or to youth after resignation to drowsy and stiffening age; to remember what once you thought life could hold, after telling over with muddied and calculating fingers what it has offered; this is music, made after long silence.

If either is true, he is overpaid and probably not up to doing the job.
