   Why is it that, in music, the amateur wants to keep hearing
   the same thing and the expert is the only one who wants to
   hear something new, whereas in literature it is only the
   expert who wants to reread, while the general public can't
   go through a work twice?

     W.H. Auden (from The Table Talk of W.H. Auden by Alan Ansen)
