People constantly want to drive places, even to places that would only take a ten to fifteen-minute walk to get to.

of those millions, almost every single one of them, if not all, have faced some sort of difficulty. Music has the power to let those people know that they are not alone.

Tom Hanks is Steven Spielberg’s great stoic hero. In Saving Private Ryan, he’s the schoolteacher soldier, trying to maintain a semblance of sense in the chaos of World War II; in Catch Me If You Can, he’s the befuddled Fed, blustering through every airy caper to drag the conman hero back down to earth.
