Adriel Takashi Soloway 3/3/14 English 10 / 4th Period Lisa Fisher Freedom’s light Happiness in itself is a virtue‚ that’s fact.

I really did enjoy and liked Duke Ellington’s "Don’t Get Around Much Anymore". The way it sounds with the orchestra is amazing and sounds very elegant and pleasing to the mind.

As quoted by Albert Einstein‚ “the only source of knowledge is experience.” Our experiences in life are what shape us into who we are. Human experience is the one thing that everyone has in common.
