Ludwig Von Beethoven

 

CUBMASTER: Ludwig von Beethoven was a great composer. Music was his life. So, when he found he was going deaf, it seemed so cruel a fate to him that he nearly ended his life.

But an inner voice told him that the Lord knows what he does. He began to hear sounds in his head. He wrote most of his songs when he was already deaf. His music glorifies man's freedom and dignity.

Had Beethoven yielded to despair and taken his life, his music wouldn't be ours to enjoy and be moved by until the end of time.
