A good and gentle human being, wasn't he?
Yes he was. Did you read his autobiography?
no. i read alot of sports articles about him. one in particular written by the late ralph wiley who said, "i'd never met a more good and gentle man in my life than arthur ashe." i think they way ashe handled himself upon learning of his disease spoke volumes about his soul.
You have to read it! It is definitely inspiring.
That's a great quote describing him. (I say that like I know him.)
