What does the quotation included in this passage tell
the reader about Woody Guthrie's music?
His song caught the bittersweet contrasts of America: the
beauty of our country, and the desperate strength of
people making do in impossibly difficult times. Across
the bottom of the sheet Woody wrote in his neat script,
"All you can write is what you see," and put the song
away.
- This Land Is Your Land,
Elizabeth Partridge
His music was based on what he saw in his life.
O His music was hard to understand.
His music always sounded sad.
His music was all about having strength in difficult
times.

His music was based on what he saw in his life.

Explanation:

Woody Guthrie's music caught the contrasting emotions of America and how people manage to survive and thrive in impossibly difficult times, so the phrase "All you can write is what you see" shows that he writes his music based on what he has experienced first hand or from the experiences of others.

It shows that Woody Guthrie put his pen to paper on what he saw in life.

read this passage from the crisis. what rationale is paine using for going to war with great britain? my own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. not all the treasures of the world, so far as i believe, could have induced me to support an offensive war, for i think it murder; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and kills or threatens to kill me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am i to suffer it? what signifies it to me, whether he who does it is a king or a common man; my countryman or not my countryman; whether it be done by an individual villain, or an army of them? if we reason to the root of things we shall find no difference; neither can any just cause be assigned why we should punish in the one case and pardon in the other.

it is waged war against an army of countrymen

it would lead to independence from britain

it would be an offensive war

it would be a defensive war
