“Internal differences within the Nation of Islam forced me out of it. I did not leave of my own free will. But now that it has happened, I intend to make the most of it.

“I think that (Alister) MacKenzie and I managed to work as a completely sympathetic team. Of course there was never any question that he was the architect and I was the advisor and consultant. No man learns to design a golf course simply by playing golf, no matter how well.

“Each religion is a brave guess at the authorship of Hamlet. Yet, as far as the play goes, does it make any difference whether Shakespeare or Bacon wrote it? Would it make any difference to the actors if their parts happened out of nothingness, if they found themselves acting on the stage because of some gross and unpardonable accident?

Would it make any difference to the characters if 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' was really a dream?” IfsLongDoePlayCharacterGodDreamNightActorsFoundDifferencesLinesActingHappenedStageBraveAccidentsNothingnessGrossPlaywrightAuthorshipMidsummerMidsummer Night's Dream Author:Lewis Mumford

“There's a big difference, as I'm sure you know, it's a slightly manneristic one, between people of the '60s and people of '68.
