Quote of the Day

“You have to be the lion in the path of anarchy. See, I’m not going to submit to racism, I don’t care whose version of it I happen to come in contact with; I’m not going to submit to superficial thinking about people; I’m not going to submit to any ideas that reduce the rich possibility of human life.”—Stanley Crouch, jazz critic and all-around contrarian, who died yesterday at age 74.
