Quite possibly THE quintessential ‘hep cat’. He and his wife were living six blocks from the World Trade Center during the 11 September attacks. They evacuated to upstate New York with Rollins bringing nothing but his saxophone.

And a few days later, he performed a concert in Boston with that saxophone. It got released as an album and won a Grammy.

Alan Hale, astronomer. He discovered the Hale–Bopp comet alongside Thomas Bopp.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
