ROBERT PENN WARREN

Just some thoughts:

                                 ROBERT PENN WARREN
 
I once heard someone say, “Good literature and good music are timeless.”
 
Four or five times a year I will go back to Indiana for a visit. It is about a five hour drive for me. Often I take that trip alone. Somewhere between the Tennessee and Kentucky borders I will see a road  sign that says: “The home of Robert Penn Warren.” 
 
He was actually born in 1905 in Guthrie, KY. I always look for the sign and every time I think of the classic book he wrote many years ago, All the King’s Men. I think it is timeless and one of the best books about politics and politicians.

“Politics is a matter of choices, and a man doesn’t set up the choices himself. And there is always a price to making a choice. You know that. You’ve made a choice, and know how much it cost you. There is always a price.”
