Springsteen: "Every Adult Was Brought Up On Fairy Tales So It's Natural To Want To Believe Your President Is A Nice, Honest Man"...



The January 2006 issue of Mojo has a fantastic interview with Bruce Springsteen.

Here's a great quote:

"... We forget that every adult was brought up on fairy tales so it's natural to go on and, politically for example, want to believe that your President is a nice, honest man. The inability to turn to an adult perspective once you get to the age where you have some political weight is a great tragedy, and this is a period of history when it seems the most obvious type of disguise is on display to the entire world and yet those are the people who are still in power."
