Henri Pruniéres commenting on the music of Claude Debussy: He was the incomparable painter of mystery, silence, and the infinite, of the passing cloud, and the sunlit shimmer of the waves—subleties which none before him had been capable of suggesting.

About Roger Nash Baldwin

Roger Nash Baldwin

Roger Nash Baldwin

Roger Nash Baldwin (January 21, 1884 - August 26, 1981) was one of the founders of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). He served as executive director of the ACLU until 1950. Many of the ACLU's original landmark cases took place under his direction, including the Scopes Monkey Trial, the Sacco and Vanzetti murder trial, and its challenge to the ban on James Joyce's Ulysses.

Baldwin was a pacifist. In 1939 he was publicly denouncing the Soviets and in the 1940's he attempted to purge Communist Party members from the ACLU.
