You know, I had a conversation
with someone the day before this run
on Broadway started and... and he said to me,
"Would you go back?" "A thousand percent."
And he said, "Really?" I said, "Yeah. What,
I'm supposed to lock myself in a room with people
who agree with me?" "That's how you
wind up like this." But I get his point,
because whenever anyone is like, "Oh, the way to reach
these people on the far right or the far left is to extend this hand
of brotherhood and connection, and let them know that
in the marketplace of ideas, they are welcome--"
Like that's a lovely notion
with someone the day before this run
on Broadway started and... and he said to me,
"Would you go back?" "A thousand percent."

You know, I had a conversation
with someone
00:00:02.961 --> 00:00:05.171
the day before this run
on Broadway started
00:00:05.255 --> 00:00:08.299
and... and he said to me,
"Would you go back?"
00:00:08.383 --> 00:00:11.261
"A thousand percent."
And he said, "Really?"
00:00:11.302 --> 00:00:12.971
I said, "Yeah. What,
I'm supposed to lock myself
00:00:13.054 --> 00:00:15.431
in a room with people
who agree with me?"
00:00:15.515 --> 00:00:17.433
"That's how you
wind up like this."
00:00:18.768 --> 00:00:21.312
But I get his point,
because whenever anyone is like,
00:00:21.396 --> 00:00:23.064
"Oh, the way to reach
these people
00:00:23.106 --> 00:00:25.108
on the far right or the far left
00:00:25.191 --> 00:00:28.999
is to extend this hand
of brotherhood and connection,
00:00:28.111 --> 00:00:30.321
and let them know that
in the marketplace of ideas,
00:00:30.405 --> 00:00:33.533
they are welcome--"
