I found whipping through the grammatical logic trees in German, and exceptions, were like the grammatical equivalent of composing a Fuge, or writing a Lisp function on the spot.

Arthur Schnitzler’s short stories helped me see a soring elegance in the language that wasn’t obvious to me for a while after becoming fluent.
