Great piece Dan, so many memorable lines. "The point of art is to move and provoke, not convert." Solo performance's beauty is how a solitary person on stage can open a window into someone else's life. As I read this, I reflected on other quotes I love, so sharing some.

Artists are the gatekeepers of truth. We are civilization's radical voice.”

~Paul Robeson

“If you find me in my work, I haven’t done my job. If you find yourself, then I’m an artist.”

~Brandi Carlile

"An open mind is a prerequisite to an open heart."

~ Robert M. Sapolsky
