Wynton Marsalis Quotes
I Noticed That Religion Gave Some People A Way To Escape Dealing With The World: "Things Will Be Better When You Die," The People Of My Grandma's Generation Said As They Worked Themselves To Death. "God Wants You To Forgive And Love Those Who Do You Wrong," Some People Said To Shake Off The Shame Of Being Unable To Respond To The Abuse They Endured. The Holier-than-thou Faction Found Comfort In Believing, "The Rest Of Y'all Are Lost Because You Don't Have A Personal Relationship With God - Our God."
But Art Engages You In The World, Not Just The World Around You But The Big World, And Not Just The Big World Of Tokyo And Sydney And Johannesburg, But The Bigger World Of Ideas And Concepts And Feelings Of History And Humanity.
