48. Beethoven's habit of increasing the volume with an extreme intensity and then abruptly following it with a sudden soft passage was only rarely used by composers before him.

贝多芬习惯用紧促有力的演奏提高音量,然后曲风一转,紧接一段轻柔舒缓的音乐,而在他之前很少有作曲家这么做。

50. One could interpret much of the work of Beethoven by saying that suffering is inevitable, but the courage to fight it renders life worth living.
