Can you do it?
I can’t.
I hear it being played,
The William Tell Overture,
Rossini’s famous work,
And all I see is The Lone Ranger
Sitting on his white horse
Riding the range,
Or on top of the cliff,
Silver, with front legs in the air,
And The Lone Ranger on his back
Shouting “ Hi Ho Silver!”
If you cannot see this
What sort of person are you?
How can you hear that Overture
And not visualise The Lone Ranger?
“An intellectual snob is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture and not think of The Lone Ranger.”
Dan Rather
