William Saroyan (Dialogue) [Live]
'I'm always amazed at how music can transcend all our differences：language, culture, politics.
And tonight we're not Republicans or Democrats.
We're not from red states or blue states, we're from the United States, right.
And even though I might complain about certain things, I've come to look at the glass as half full.
Maybe just in moments but it's there, you know, in the unconditional love of a pet, that look in their eyes.
They love you every time you walk into the room.
The uncapturable scent of a gardenia.
I know you want me to sing that song.
It's in a baby's smile.
And it's important for me to find those moments everyday and be grateful for them.
The playwright, William Saroyan said it much better than I ever could, in 1939 when this country was facing, actually the world was facing one of its' bleakest periods, he wrote these words as a forward to his very famous play ….'
