OK, Bev… after that intro, I had to go see what he said…
Actually…..
It only takes one little tweak to feel safe in posting it here…I hope…
Tony said:
“Florence now. Just saw Michelangelo’s David for the second time in my life. Abso-*-ing-lutely… speechless. I quit.Aug. 6What’s the point of going on as an artist after that?”
(I replaced one letter…. use your own imagination, for which I’m not responsible … with the asterisk.)
And if that last part is your question, Tony….There’s only ever been one Michelangelo, true….and he was … fantastic doesn’t even describe it…But there’s also only one you…
and the world needs ALL its artists.
Just like only one scientist was Einstein…Only one composer was Beethoven….
We still needed da Vinci, and Hawking… and the Rolling Stones….And artists and scientists and musicians of every description….cos who knows what history will decide? And cartoonists!“Daddy’s Home” may not be La Pietà …but it adds something to my life…. every single day.Thank you!
Just discovered that Tigressy quoted Tony’s same comment late on Friday’s strip…though from the time given on the Facebook page, that would be before he posted it.And Bev and I only saw it today…
QOTD #1: What if a young Michelangelo, upon seeing the art that would inspire him had the same reaction? There would be no David to be humbled by. Tony you never know who might be inspired by your work and become the next Michelango that is why you continue.
QOTD #2: I’m not sure what my favorite is but I know it’s not bicycle racing. I don’t understand how something can be both a team sport and an individual sport at the same time.
