"The idea that the media is there to educate us, or to inform us, is 
ridiculous because that's about tenth or eleventh on their list.  The first 
purpose of the media is to sell us shit, things we don't need.  One moment 
it'll be 'don't do drugs' and ten minutes later it's Miller time."

-- Abbie Hoffman, 1987

But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.

-- Bob Dylan


I celebrate myself, & sing myself,
& what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. I loafe & invite my 
soul,
I lean & loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass
My tongue, every atom of my blood, form'd from this soil, this air,
Born here of parents born here from parents the same, & their parents the 
same,
I, now 77 years old in perfect health begin,
Hoping to cease not till death.

-- Whitman
