I'm a huge Bach admirer, too. There are some who claim that he was the greatest of all of the composers -- although some Mozart aficionados might disagree. But I'll say that Mozart was a far less admirable man than Bach.
Quote - One reason I like the "Cosby Show" is that while Clare was obviously smart, productive, wise and independent and Bill could be the clown, he was still the king. Not "King" as in dominating the woman, just King of the house. She knew his faults but she never used them to diminish her husband.
Excellent point. And Cosby has gone on to demonstrate that in real life he's in a large measure the same as the father character which he portrayed on television. Which has cost him. It's not PC for him to think like that or to be like that -- it just doesn't fit into the accepted PC template for what he's supposed to think. And it's a thought crime for which he must be punished, by today's lights.
Bill Cosby has enjoyed great success in his life. But it's not been any bed of roses. It rarely is for the honorable......like Bach. Or like Clarence Thomas.
