Epifanio de los Santos

We all know in our gut that art educates. In other societies, they're aware of the power it has of speaking directly to the masses, teaching them to be better socialists, better citizens.

Henry Rollins
A friend at school was always being laughed at because his father emptied dustbins for a living. But those who laughed worshipped famous footballers.
