“Strength is the lot of but a few privileged men; but austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the smallest of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistibly greater with time.” Goethe
Because they are full of emotions, and it's easy to connect to them.
Music can also mend relationships strained by politics.
The death of a beloved musician unites people in all republics of ex-Yugoslavia once torn apart by war.

Bunny Wailer from the famed reggae group has passed away.
It's belated, but no one here has said a word about the passing of Walter Gretzky, father of Wayne Gretzky, who died on March 4th, so I thought I'd best say something. Maybe for people outside Canada, Walter Gretzky is an unknown, but for many in Canada, he was our hockey dad and as much a hero as his son. It was Walter who coached and trained Wayne to become the Great One--and more importantly imparted his values of decency and hard work. His funeral was held on March 6th, where Wayne paid tribute to his father and the organist played the theme to "Hockey Night in Canada."

Yep. Frank Thorne almost feels like the creator of Red Sonja, his work is so iconic. For me, he captured the savagery and beauty of her character perfectly, especially in her facial expressions and that wild hair.
It really doesn't matter how many Red Sonja depictions I see, be they ultra sexy or realistic or whatever. Thorne's version is her.
