Leonard Cohen is the voice that moves me to listen to it daily. His inner search parallels my own and his failures as well. They must penetrate to a level that personality cannot reach.
Yet his physical beauty itself was a great gift. His speaking voice as powerful as his songs. His humor as healing as his sorrow. I do not think he ever spoke the truth of how shattered he was on a personal level. He was too big a man to do that, I suppose. He simply lived it and thus implied it.
Those of who love him are legion and One.
