# Miguel Piñero

Miguel Antonio Gómez Piñero (December 19, 1946 – June 16, 1988) was a playwright, actor and co-founder of the Nuyorican Poets Café.

## Quotes

* Theater is the only thing that still belongs to the people
** As quoted in the book Captive Audience: Prison and Captivity in Contemporary Theatre from a 1974 interview that Piñero did
* Prison is a society within a society. It’s a reflection of life in the streets. The jargon may be different, but we think and feel the same as on the streets and we recreate it in prison.
** As quoted in the book Captive Audience: Prison and Captivity in Contemporary Theatre about Piñero’s views regarding prison culture

## Quotes about Piñero

* His poetry and the plays are so fraught with the things that aggravated and influenced him and ultimately made his life successful. He took this form and infused it with an urban, Latin lifeblood that had never been used in poetry before. He was remarkable as a writer in terms of never really self-editing himself or censoring himself.
** Benjamin Bratt on how he crafted the artist’s portrayal in the biopic Piñero (2001) in “Interview: Benjamin Bratt and Leon Ichaso Talk Piñero” in Slant Magazine (2001 Dec 21)
* I happen to feel that [Piñero] was a romantic character and there was something about his love for land that was very wonderful, the way he held Puerto Rico, that elusive homeland in the foreground of his thoughts and writing. For all of us who are uprooted and thrown into this city, to keep a semblance of that is always so dignified. That would make it perhaps a bit nostalgic for me because people like that don’t seem to be around anymore.
** On how he characterizes Miguel Piñero in “Interview: Benjamin Bratt and Leon Ichaso Talk Piñero” in Slant Magazine (2001 Dec 21)
* When I started writing, there were only two women writers that I knew: Lorraine Sutton and Margie Simmons. There were very few Latinas writing in English... So when I started, I was mainly surrounded by men-Pedro Pietri, Jesus Papoleto Melendez, Lucky Cienfuegos, Miguel Algarín, Miguel Piñero, Tato Laviera. Many of them had books already published. I was like a sponge, absorbing different things from these male contemporaries.

** Inauguration of a joint project between the government and the Catholic Church, in favor of care and rehabilitation of drug addicts (27 October 2008)
* Work for the construction of a more just society, where there are job opportunities for all and fair wages, to avoid the temptation to get easy money. You have to raise your voice: we must not get used to living in a climate of violence, this leads to indifference.
** Corrupt policemen and climate of mistrust, the Bishop of La Paz denounces the silence of the authorities (9 October 2014)
* We stand in millions against violence, we firmly believe that we cannot let a handful of individuals steal our peace. We cannot allow them to steal our streets and take our city hostage.
** Bishop Alba: "We cannot allow criminals steal our streets, steal our peace" (3 December 2014)

# Nathaniel Lee

Nathaniel Lee (c. 1653 – May 6, 1692) was an English dramatist.

## Quotes

* Man, false man, smiling, destructive man!
** Theodosius, or the Force of Love (acted 1680), Act iii., Sc. 2.
* I called the world mad, and the world called me mad, and they outvoted me.
** Possibly apocryphal remark to a visitor asking why he was incarcerated in Bedlam for five years; this is often misquoted as "They called me mad, and I called them mad, and damn them, they outvoted me." (c. 1987), but that does not appear in either version written by Joseph Priestley in the 1700s:
* The Theological and Miscellaneous Works of Joseph Priestley, Volume 17, pg321, in "Remarks on M. Depuis's Origin of All Religions" (? date):
       When Lee the tragedian was in a mad-house, and was asked by a stranger how he came there, he said he was outvoted. Being desired to explain himself, he replied, "I said the world was mad, and the world said I was mad, and they outvoted me." (P.)
* And in a letter 7 January 1799 (pg15-16, Letters):
       My general maxims of policy are, I believe, peculiar to myself. When I mentioned them to Mr. Adams, he was pleased to say that "if any nation could govern itself by them, it would command the world." Of this I am fully persuaded; but he has departed very far from them. All that I can expect is the fate of the poet Lee, who, when he was confined in a mad-house, and was asked by some stranger why he was sent thither, replied, "I said the world was mad, and the world said I was mad, and they outvoted me." My plan would prevent all war, and almost all taxes. But if the calamities of war, heavy taxation, the pestilence, &c., or any other evil, be required for the discipline of nations, as I believe that in the present state of things they are, they will be introduced for some cause or other...

### The Rival Queens, or the Death of Alexander the Great (1677)

* Then he will talk—good gods! how he will talk!
** Act i., Sc. 3. "It would talk,— Lord! how it talked!", Beaumont and Fletcher, Scornful Lady (c. 1613; printed 1616), Act v., Sc. 1.
* Vows with so much passion, swears with so much grace, That ’t is a kind of heaven to be deluded by him.

* When Greeks joined Greeks, then was the tug of war.
** Act iv., Sc. 2.
* ’T is beauty calls, and glory shows the way.
** Act iv., Sc. 2. In stage editions, it is "Leads the way" with various interpolations, among them— See the conquering hero comes! Sound the trumpet, beat the drums!— which was first used by Handel in "Joshua," and afterwards transferred to "Judas Maccabæus." The text of both oratorios was written by Dr. Thomas Morell, a clergyman.

## Quotes

* So many of the very funny things are very natural, we do them all every day. They’re just that little bit heightened, which is what makes you fall on the floor when you’re doing it. Sometimes we can’t finish a take because we’re laughing too much, and sometimes you see the cameraman chuckling and we have to do it again. Not having done many comedies, that must be the sign of a very funny script!

## Quotes

* If solid happiness we prize, Within our breast this jewel lies, And they are fools who roam. The world has nothing to bestow; From our own selves our joys must flow, And that dear hut, our home.
** The Fireside, stanza 3, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
* To be resign'd when ills betide, Patient when favours are deni'd, And pleas'd with favours given,— Dear Chloe, this is wisdom's part; This is that incense of the heart Whose fragrance smells to heaven.

## Quotes
### One Bullet Away: The Making of a Marine Officer (2005)

* Farther down the line, in the middle of a gravelly flat near the runway's end, I approached another fighting hole, careful to come from the rear and listen for the verbal challenge. It was an assault rocket team, and there should have been two Marines awake. In the moonlight, I saw three heads silhouetted against the sky. I slid down into the hole with a rustle of cascading dirt. General Mattis leaned against a wall of sandbags, talking with a sergeant and a lance corporal. That was real leadership. No one would have questioned Mattis if he'd slept eight hours each night in a private room, to be woken each morning by an aide who ironed his uniforms and heated his MREs. But there he was, in the middle of a freezing night, out on the lines with his Marines.
** p. 118
* General Mattis arrived a few minutes later, clearing the atmosphere like a thunderstorm on a humid afternoon. Mattis is kinetic. The troops who knew him from Afghanistan loved him, and everyone else loved him by reputation. Stars on a collar can throw a barrier between leader and led, but Mattis' rank only contributed to his hero status. Here was an officer, a general, who understood the Marines, who, in fact, was one of them. I caught Wynn's eye and leaned toward him to whisper a question: "You know what Mattis's call sign is?" He shook his head. "Chaos. How fucking cool is that?"

# Nathaniel Mackey

Nathaniel Mackey (born 1947) is an American poet, novelist, anthologist, literary critic and editor.

## Quotes

* …I think figures accrue to and build on feeling, and it’s no doubt the case that orphaning speaks of and from an emotional disposition I’m both inclined toward and see applying beyond myself. The orphan is such an archetypal figure, recurrent not only in my work but in world culture, because it tugs at the roots of our sense of belonging and the mix of anxiety and solace that goes with that sense…
** On using orphans as an archetype for displacement in Nod House in “’The Song Sung in a Strange Land’: An Interview with Nathaniel Mackey” in the Iowa Review' (Winter 2014/2015)
* …Drift is the tension and play between spirit and matter. Spirit wants to be unbound. It’s the tension between spirit and letter as well, the play between spirit and letter, the tangential way of knowing that the expression “you get my drift” gets at, not to mention the turns spirit and letter take toward each other and away from each other. Language, especially poetic language, replicates or is infused with the relationship between spirit and matter, the traffic between spirit and letter, its analogue…
** On his play on words in “’The Song Sung in a Strange Land’: An Interview with Nathaniel Mackey” in the Iowa Review (Winter 2014/2015)
* …to the extent that categories and the way things are defined -- the boundaries between things, people, areas of experience, areas of endeavor -- to the extent that those categories and definitions are rooted in social and political realities, anything one does that challenges them, that transgresses those boundaries and offers new definitions, is to some extent contributing to social change…
** On how art can inadvertently cause social change in “AN INTERVIEW WITH NATHANIEL MACKEY” in Callaloo
* I think that the audience for poetry has widened in recent years and maybe it's continuing to widen—I hope so. The whole poetry slam phenomenon has created an interest and widened the audience for poetry in significant ways. There's a lot that needs to be done, obviously. But poetry is one of those things that just won't go away, and people keep rediscovering it. I think every generation has a poetry boom, or gives a boom to poetry, gives itself to poetry. There is also a growing sense that poetry has great variety to it, that there are many ways of going about it. I think with the recognition of that variousness, there's been a growth in the audience.
** On the generational nature of poetry in “A Conversation with Nathaniel Mackey” in Publisher’s Weekly (2006 Nov 22)
* …The song does remember the deceased, and it’s the song that helps the deceased move on—to ascend, in the words of the poem, to the next life. I wanted to take that and apply it to senses of transition and, hopefully, ascendance within life, moments where one feels one has to move on and move up. I didn’t know it would become an ongoing, theoretically endless series—

# Rhapsody Rabbit

Rhapsody Rabbit is a 1946 Merrie Melodies animated short subject, featuring Bugs Bunny and directed by Friz Freleng. The short was originally released to theaters by Warner Bros.

* We need great teachers out there because people need great role models. It’s one of those things that you look back and think about those really great teachers that we had and some who … didn’t make an impact on me and I think we learn more from them of what not to do. But, nowadays, I think the respect factor has to be added back into the school system and that comes from at home. The respect for teachers should be there. Education and healthcare are the two most important things if you think about it.

Paul McAleenan (15 July 1951 –) is a prelate of the Catholic Church who serves as an auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Westminster.

## Quotes

* One thing that all saints have in common is that they are happy, they possess a joy. When one is happy you want to share what you have, you want others to know what you know. One consequence of that attitude is that many Irish saints travelled from their homeland taking with them the message of the Gospel. They did so precisely because they were motivated by that desire to introduce others to the God who had brought such meaning and joy to their own lives.

## Quotes

* At 15 years of age, I was 6’3” tall, with a very low voice that brought attention to me - often. As a result, I was very self- conscious, to say the least. My mother took me to a dramatic coach in Hollywood to help me overcome my self-consciousness. On the very first meeting, she gave a magazine to me to read out-loud for 15 minutes, while standing on a raised platform. Afterward the coach, Ruth Bowes, turned to my mother and said, “Your son has every quality to become a great actor”.
* Hollywood left an indelible impression on my life; it was my life, and will remain with me as a wonderful experience. I am grateful for that marvelous time and for the many fans that still follow what I do and have done.
