❝You’re either committed to people or you’re committed to art. You’ve got to take art as far as it can go. It’s the only way of getting true expression. Everybody owes it to himself to find exactly what he is capable of doing and go ahead and do it. People usually stop because they become aware of the critical nature of people.❞ — #CharlesGayle, 1970 https://www.blackeditionsgroup.com/post/i-want-no-compromises-whatsoever-what-i-do-is-not-a-form-of-entertainment-it-s-like-a-religious-o
