Beethoven's anecdotes
Once, Beethoven went into his parents' restaurant for dinner, and as soon as he sat down, he absorbed himself in conceiving his own music. After he finished his idea, he happily called the waiter and said, "Check out." how much is it? "The waiter paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said," Sir, you haven't eaten yet, so why pay for it! " "
18 12 years, Beethoven and Aude, two giants of German literary and art circles, met in a bathing place in Bohemia. Beethoven is an admirer of Goethe. He once said, "Goethe's poems make me happy." Now that we meet for the first time, he hopes to further explore his soul from the wisdom and poetic talent of this great poet and draw strength from his personality.
While they were talking enthusiastically, the queen, the prince and a group of courtiers passed by them. Beethoven always hated such people, so when everyone took off their hats and the Queen nodded to them, Beethoven held his head high and pretended not to see anything. However, Goethe is different. He quickly shook off the dust, straightened his collar, took off his hat, stepped forward and bowed to the queen and prince.
At this time, Beethoven only felt that the tall image of the poet in his previous mind suddenly fell apart. When the resigned royal family members passed by, Beethoven almost said to Goethe in a quarrelsome tone: "You are not the author of Goethe and Faust in my imagination, but a vulgar person." Since then, they have never met again.
