Subject: RE: Music and the mentally handicapped
So G.K. Chesterton also said that line? I invented it independently, a couple of decades ago. And I'll add another thought on the subject:

"Anything worth doing is worth doing badly" is not the opposite of "Anything worth doing is worth doing well." They both are corollaries of the basic principle that anything worth doing is worth doing for its own sake, whether you do it well or badly.
