A Legend Passes

Arthur Miller passed away on Thursday at the age of 89. The New York Times offers a look at Miller examining his life and his contributions to the American stage.

"[L]et us devote the same energy and ingenuity we have given to war and apply it to wiping out the disgrace of poverty in this richest of all nations. Let us feel that disgrace, let us feel it for what it is, a personal affront to each of us that cannot be permitted to stand...Either we begin to construct a civilization, which means a common consciousness of social responsibility, or the predator within us will devour us all. "

--from an article by Miller in 1968
