The Why Cheap Art? Manifesto, Bread & Puppet Theater, 1984
the WHY CHEAP ART? manifesto
PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that
ART is a PRIVILEGE of the MUSEMS & the
RICH.   ART IS NOT BUSINESS !
It does not belong to banks & fancy investors
ART IS FOOD . You cant EAT it BUT it FEEDS
you. ART has to be CHEAP & available to
EVERYBODY. It needs to be EVERYWHERE
because it is INSIDE of the WORLD.
ART SOOTHES PAIN !
Art wakes up sleepers !
ART FIGHTS AGAINST WAR & STUPDITY ! 
ART SINGS HALLELUJA!
ART IS FOR KITCHENS!
ART IS LIKE GOOD BREAD!
Art is like green trees!
Art is like white clouds in blue sky!
ART IS CHEAP!
HURRAH!
Bread & Puppet Glover, Vermont, 1984

this will do more for opera than anything that any artistic director or general manager has ever done or thought to do. it’s literally just this simple. (@mayor.nyc.gov, call me, Brooklyn-born opera scholar, will travel!)

Slavoj Žižek has my dream job. I watched him speak in front of a crowd for 45 minutes uninterrupted about whatever he felt like while the host watched helplessly. when he finally finished she said "wise words" and he said "I HATE WISDOM" then started talking again

It really is a shame that Tom Cruise was born too late for the Hollywood studio system of the 30s and 40s. He could have had his life controlled and foibles concealed by Mayer and Selznick instead of Miscavige. He'd be a more contented man.

"SAM NEILL
- If you were to commit a murder, how would you do it?
- It's got to be big! No slipping something into someone's drink, that's just pathetic. I'd use a steamroller, just leave a stain on the road. There's probably a couple of people I'd put under a steamroller, but I won't say who they are, otherwise when they see a steamroller coming their way they'll be on full alert. And steamrollers don't go very fast..."
