Thread Name: Has anyone the courage now? (Moses Asch)
Subject: RE: Has anyone the courage now?
Thank You all. I have been away for a few days, and returned to find this topic a beacon.... Many of you, I suspect are aware of a quote by Frderick Douglas, that I will paraphrase as, without struggle nothing changes. Your comments, and your willingness to share your thoughts on the raw edges of the human condition, your concern, make it easier to get up each day, and struggle. Art, I am not a Utopian, but will remain a socialist. I am not a whore, don't think I'll ever have to worry about becoming a capitalist, wasn't born with it, won't steal it. (like Yogi Berra said, If I find a million bucks, and find out it belonged to a poor person, I'll give it back.) I might consider giving it to Dave Siglin at the Ark, with the requirement he bring all of you guys in for a well paid gig.
