Indeed, it is better to do that than to remain uncertain and silent and end up back in Budapest rather than in Milan. -- Kató Lomb
  • When I sang my American folk melodies in Budapest, Prague, Tiflis, Moscow, Oslo, or the Hebrides or on the Spanish front, the people understood and wept or rejoiced with the spirit of the songs.
