When any master holds 'twixt chin and hand a violin of mine, he will be glad that Stradivari lived, made violins, and made them of the best...For while God gives them skill I give them instruments to play upon, God choosing me to help him...If my hand slacked I should rob God-since he is fullest good-leaving a blank instead of violins...he could not make Antonio Stradivari's violins without Antonio. as interpreted by George Eliot and from THE MEANING OF PRAYER by Harry Emerson Fosdick.
