Stephen Hawking at the Theater

With a hat tip to Ann Althouse, here is a blog post on Stephen Hawking going to a play about ALS—Lou Gehrig's Disease.

Trivia fact:  In WIkipedia's list of the top 100 movie quotes, Number 38 is Gary Cooper playing Lou Gehrig in Pride of the Yankees speaking the words:
Today, I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth.
The actual speech can be found here.

Attitude counts.

PS:  There are those who would have no truck with Ms Jane Fonda, regardless of the activity.  Forty some years ago she did things that I thought were reprehensible.  But, I believe in redemption and forgiveness and she has apologized.  Time to move on and accept her for the artist she is.
