Three Wishes

Tasking Wilbur Ware to give up his three wishes by the Baroness he retorted:

  1. “That I could get my life straightened out, so that I could be accepted otherwise, as well as musically.”
  2. “To be able to play music. And, out of my musical ability, to be able to have security for my family as well as myself.”
  3. “For the world to live in peace and harmony.”
