- So not to be too difficult, but we've been coming here for two days
just staring at this thing. I'm not really sure what we're supposed to
be doing.
Locke - Ludovico Buonarrati, Michelangelo's father. He was a
wealthy man. He had no understanding of the divinity in his son so he
beat him. No child of his was going to use his hands for a living. So,
Michelangelo learned not to use his hands. Years later a visiting price
came into Michelangelo's studio and found the master staring at a
single 18 foot block of marble. Then he knew that the rumors were true
- that Michelangelo had come in everyday for the last 4 four months,
stared at the marble, and gone home for his supper. So the prince asked
the obvious: what are you doing? And Michelangelo turned around and
looked at him, and whispered, sto lavorando, I'm working. Three years
later that block of marble was the statue of David.
Boone - We're not going to stare at this for 4 months, are we? How are we going to open it?
