"I'm a farmer," Yasgur said, "I don't know how to speak to 20 people at one time, let alone a crowd like this. But I think you people have proven something to the world, not only the Town of Bethel or Sullivan County or New York state. You've proven something to the world. This is the largest gathering of people ever assembled in one place. … the important thing that you've proven to the world is that a half-a-million kids, and I call you kids because I have children who are older than you are, a half a million young people can get together and have three days of fun and music and have nothing but fun and music and I God bless you for it." #YasgursFarm #MaxYasgur
