“Feminism … I think the simplest explanation, and one that captures the idea, is a song that Marlo Thomas sang, 'Free to be You and Me.' Free to be, if you were a girl—doctor, lawyer, Indian chief. Anything you want to be. And if you’re a boy, and you like teaching, you like nursing, you would like to have a doll, that’s OK too. That notion that we should each be free to develop our own talents, whatever they may be, and not be held back by artificial barriers—manmade barriers, certainly not heaven sent.” IfsThinkingWantShouldMayIdeasSongGirlHeavenBoysFeminismTeachingTalentDoctorsNotionLawyerChiefsIndianExplanationBarriersCaptureBe YouArtificialSimplestNursingDollsHeaven SentIndian Chief Author:Ruth Bader Ginsburg
“Songwriting is a craft. Writing good songs on a a consistent basis doesn not happen spontaneously. In fact, most of our best songwriters learned to write good songs by writing a lot of not so good ones. Education matters in songwriting, just as it matters for physicists, chemists, doctors, lawyers and MBAs. Education lays the foundataion on which to build experience.” WritingMatterFactsHappensSongDoctorsBasesLaysLawyerCraftsConsistentSongwritingSongwritersPhysicistChemistMba Author:Michael Kosser
