‘Time is a Great Teacher,’ — Hector Berlioz Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Muscle Tank

“Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils.” Hector Berlioz dropped this into a letter in November 1856, mid-career and mid-exhaustion — the arch-Romantic who had written the Symphonie fantastique at twenty-six, now pricing what mastery actually costs. Time hands you wisdom with one hand and the bill with the other: it teaches everyone, and buries them all.
