The music as always had a dark sweet luster, but it was more than ever like an endless beginning-a theme ever building to a climax which would never come.

Anne Rice
About This Quote

"The music as always had a dark sweet luster, but it was more than ever like an endless beginning-a theme ever building to a climax which would never come." According to the poet, this is what life felt like, like the music of the past. He talks about how he feels like he has reached the end of his achievements in life without reaching the climax of his music. He feels it has no conclusion, just endless beginnings.
