my favorite Kurt Vonnegut quote

It's also my favorite observation about The Beatles:
I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.
That's what I aspire to - using art to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit.




Considering how much they were together, it's surprising how hard it is to find an extended Lennon & McCartney together clip like this.

LUCY...
