Admit your mistakes but don't cry over them. Correct them and go forward.
No composer has yet caught this rhythm of America - it is too mighty for the ears of most.

It is unheard-of, uncivilized barbarism that any woman should still be forced to bear such monstrous torture. It should be remedied. It should be stopped.
