| Maxim Gorky
Be good, be kind, be humane, and charitable; love your fellows; console the afflicted; pardon those who have done you wrong. Every new time will give its law. Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is. One has to be able to count if only so that at fifty one doesn't marry a girl of twenty. Only mothers can think of the future, because they give birth to it in their children. The most beautiful words in the English langauge are "not guilty." There is no one on earth more disgusting and repulsive than he who gives alms. Even as there is no one so miserable as he who accepts them. What 'jazz' means to me is the worst kind of working conditions, the worst in cultural prejudice. The term 'jazz' has come to mean the abuse and exploitation of black musicians. When work is a pleasure, life is a joy! When work is a duty, life is slavery. |
