随着第一个敲击声的落下，随着鼓声在舞台后方鸣鸣作响，我知道，我达成了童年时想成为“乐队指挥”的目标，哪怕只是一小会，哪怕只是指挥一首小乐曲。

And with the first down beat, the drums roaring at the rear of the stage, I knew I'd reached that childhood goal of being "the leader of the band," if only for a moment, if only for a single piece.

三年不蜚，蜚将冲天；三年不鸣，鸣将惊人。

If the birds have not flown for three years, they will soar into the clouds. If they have not sung for three years, their songs will take everyone by surprise.

《新英汉大辞典》

PERCHANCE he for whom this bell tolls may be so ill as that he knows not it tolls for him.
