“A part of my appreciation for the good which moments bring has come from awareness and recognition. But it has also come from a correspnding sadness which arises from their passing. When something that can never quite be reenacted comes to an end (and all moments are that way), I feel a pensiveness within. This pensiveness gives my life a quality that might be best described as bittersweet. And those moments take on double meaning and richness - because they are here now - and because they will not always be.”
Bob Benson

“Shortly after he became a judge in 1967, he began to preside over cases involving the racial integration of Virginia’s secondary and elementary schools. He correctly read the law as requiring integration without unnecessary delay. Accordingly, he ordered mass bussing and other measures to move ahead on ending segregation. As a result, he became a hated man by a large number of Virginia dimwits who liked their white-only schools just fine.”
Bob Benson, A Late-Inning Trilogy

“The Genovese story has been used to highlight the fact that for many it is preferable to avoid controversy than to step forward and attempt to do the right thing.”
Bob Benson, A Late-Inning Trilogy
