All around me I am showered by thunderous applause. As I take my last bow I remember what it took me to get here, to be debuting with the Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra at the age of seventeen.

Stalin Was Russia’s Big Brother Joseph Stalin once said during his rule over Russia, “Education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed” (“Joseph Stalin Quotes”).
