Three Wishes

Herbie Nichols was approached by Nica to find out his three wishes and they were:

  1. “To attain power enough to avert major wars.”
  2. “To straighten out my personal self, so as to express my art fully.”
  3. “If I had power enough I would make it clear that “civilization” does not necessarily mean living a frustrated life. There are solutions to all these things. Life can be beautiful.”
