Writer’s Quote Wednesday: “Everything Is Beautiful”

Ray Stevens quoteThese words are from the lyrics of “Everything Is Beautiful,” written and performed by American singer/songwriter Ray Stevens.  The song became a hit in 1970 and won two Grammy Awards in 1971.  Containing anti-racist and pro-tolerance lyrics, it was a departure for Stevens who usually recorded comedy and novelty songs.
