He said that he looked forward to meeting Johannes Brahms "in the great beyond" -and then clarified that by saying that "the great beyond" is "out west." "I guess I'll meet him on the coast," he finally concluded. "I'll meet Brahms when I go to the coast," he repeated, somewhat sadly...
...firmness. Wherever he went, he also talked as the peacemaker, probing especially for ideas on how to maintain the precarious ceasefire in the Middle East and how to get U.N.-mediated negotiations going.
