"The arts have an enduring capacity to enrich,
explain, and transform. And that is why the need for expression
through the arts is felt in every society and civilization since
the beginning of time. We need to do all that we can to support
America’s artists and sustain an environment that more fully supports
the arts."
— U.S. Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-Massachusetts)
