Select Arto Lindsay Quotations
Certainly since then many people have taken a lot of those ideas and ridden them for years and years and made careers out of them. Part of that is willingness to do the kind of work that I wasn't willing to do. Get into a van and cover the country.
Arto Lindsay

Arto Lindsay
