“It is a bad thing to perform menial duties even for the sake of freedom; to fight with pinpricks, instead of with clubs. I have become tired of hypocrisy, stupidity, gross arbitrariness, and of our bowing and scraping, dodging, and hair-splitting over words. Consequently, the government has given me back my freedom.” GovernmentFightingGivenDutyHairTiredSakeClubsStupidityHypocrisyBad ThingsGrossSplittingScraping Book:Karl Marx, Frederick Engels: Collected Works Source: Karl Marx, Frederick Engels: Collected Works
“I came to New York for the first time with Peter Buck at age 19. We spent a week living out of a van on the street in front of a club in the West 60s called Hurrah. It's where Pylon played. I saw Klaus Nomi play there. And Michael Gira's band before he did Swans-they all wore cowboy boots and were so cool and had great hair. I was so jealous.” FirstsPlayAgeSawsWeekStreetsFrontsNew YorkHairBandFirst TimeWestClubsJealousBootsPeterCowboyVansBucksSwansCowboy BootGreat Hair Author:Michael Stipe
“For all works and things, which are either commanded or forbidden by God and thus have been instituted by the supreme Majesty, are 'musts.'
