More From Ella Fitzgerald

In the realm of pop celebrity, the bar has been lowered so far that there is no bar. people can be famous for being famous, famous for being infamous, famous for having once been famous and, thanks largely to the internet, famous for not being famous at all.

She smiled. she knew she was dying. but it did not matter any longer. she had known something which no human words could ever tell and she knew it now. she had been awaiting it and she felt it, as if it had been, as if she had lived it. life had been, if only because she had known it could be, and she felt it now as a hymn without sound, deep under the little whole that dripped red drops into the snow, deeper than that from which the red drops came. a moment or an eternity- did it matter? life, undefeated, existed and could exist. she smiled, her last smile, to so much that had been possible.

In ancient times, people weren't just male or female, but one of three types: male/male, male/female, female/female. in other words, each person was made out of the components of two people. everyone was happy with this arrangement and never really gave it much a thought. but then god took a knife and cut everybody in half, right down the middle. so after that the world was divided just into male and female, the upshot being that people spend their time running around trying to locate their missing other half.

Now any person who plays an acoustic guitar standing up on stage with a microphone is a folk singer. some grandmother with a baby in her arms singing a 500-year-old song, well, she's not a folk singer, she's not on stage with a guitar and a microphone. no, she's just an old grandmother singing an old song. the term "folk singer" has gotten warped.

I learned a long time ago, reuven, that a blink of an eye in itself is nothing. but the eye that blinks, that is something. a span of life is nothing. but the man who lives that span, he is something. he can fill that tiny span with meaning, so its quality is immeasurable though its quantity may be insignificant. do you understand what i am saying? a man must fill his life with meaning, meaning is not automatically given to life.
