I'd go back to Michelangelo Buonarotti's studio in Florence when he
was sculpting David, or in Rome when he was working on the Pieta or
the Sistine Chapel ceiling, so I could watch him work...I'd also go
back a little further to pick Brunelleschi's brain about how he put
the dome on Florence Cathedral. Of course, going back even further
to watch Stonehenge or the Parthenon or the pyramids being built
would also be very good.
I'd spend some time with Elizabeth I in England, watching a really
powerful woman telling all the men around her what to do...and then
go watch a Shakespeare play which had just been tweaked by the author
himself...I'd want to watch the first balloon flight and the first
real Wright Brothers flight...I'd want to know Marie Curie, Mary
Wollstonecraft, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Dorothy Parker and Eleanor
Roosevelt. I'd also like to see Katharine Hepburn live onstage when
she was in her mid-twenties...(I saw her in West Side Waltz when she
was in her seventies.) Seeing Spencer Tracy onstage would also be
heaven...There's too much to choose from!
