"We often indulge in malicious laughter at someone or something, but when we pause to look we see how pitiful and sad is the object of our ridicule; and then we grow ashamed, the mocking laughter rings in our ears, but it is we who are its object now."
Sergei Prokofiev, in a program note to Sarcasm No. 5
Funny pieces, No. 3 is in F# minor and Bb minor at the same time
