“I think in that context, when a generation of kids is that ignorant of their recent history, it does a good job of showing what the Pistols were standing for. It's current and it's in the air, partly because I think nothing contemporary is as extreme or as strongly stated as what The Sex Pistols were able to do in their time, in the '70s. I think the reason to [make the film] is that their ideas are still alive: the defense of the right to be an individual, and questioning everything you read, and questioning all the information that's bombarded increasingly at you.” ThinkingDoeStillsIdeasReasonKidsAbleJobsFilmIndividualSexAliveGenerationsAirInformationStandingCurrentsExtremesDefenseIgnorantContemporaryQuestioningGood JobPistolsBombardedSex PistolsQuestioning Everything Author:Julien Temple

“I'm sure everyone feels sorry for the individual who has fallen by the wayside or who can't keep up in our competitive society, but my own compassion goes beyond that to those millions of unsung men and women, who get up every morning, send the kids to school, go to work, try to keep up the payments on their house, pay exorbitant taxes to make possible compassion for the less fortunate, and as a result have to sacrifice many of their own desires and dreams and hopes. Government owes them something better than always finding a new way to make them share the fruit of their toils with others.” MenWayFeelsTryingDreamGovernmentKidsSchoolDesireHouseIndividualMy OwnResultsPayCompassionMorningMillionsSacrificeShareTaxesFindingsMen And WomenFruitSorryGet UpFortunateFallenEvery MorningNew WaysToilPaymentSomething BetterLess Fortunate Author:Ronald Reagan
“Our "society" is not a community, but merely a collection of isolated family units. Desperately insecure, fearing his woman will leave him if she's exposed to other men or to anything remotely resembling life, the male seeks to isolate her from other men and from what little civilization there is, so he moves her out to the suburbs, a collection of self-absorbed couples and their kids. Isolation, further, enables him to try to maintain his pretense of being an individual by being a "rugged individualist", a loner, equating non-co-operation and solitariness with individuality.” IfsMenTryingLittlesSelfKidsMovingIndividualCommunityCoupleCivilizationMalesIndividualityOperationsIsolationCollectionsOur SocietyExposedIsolatedUnitsInsecurePretenseSuburbsLonerSelf AbsorbedRuggedFamily Unit Author:Valerie Solanas
“Let's make it clear for the dimmest bulbs among you: the kids at Columbine High didn't die from too many guns, they died from too few. I'm not suggesting that the teachers should have carried guns not as franchised agents of the state. They should have carried guns as ordinary individuals, exercising a sacred right, and in performance of a solemn duty to protect the young lives that were placed very foolishly, as it turned out in their hands.” ShouldStatesHandsKidsYoungDiesIndividualClearTeacherDutyExerciseProtectOrdinaryGunShould HavePerformancesDiedSacredAgentsSolemnSuggestingBulbsColumbineYoung Life Author:L.

“You know what happens to guys? There's what I call the individual time of their career, and the team time of their career. This is the team time. You don't care about all the other stuff. You just want to live in one place, and watch your kids grow up and go to the same school. You say, 'Hey, maybe I'd better play well and be a good enough guy that they keep me.'” KnowsWantWellsEnoughPlayHappensCareKidsSchoolGuyIndividualGrowsStuffCareersWatchesGrowing UpTeamDon't CareHeyGood EnoughNhl Author:Mike Babcock
“In a sense technology is a tool of sort of individual choice, individual creativity, individual empowerment, individual access.

“Kids are told there are no differences between boys and girls. They are told there is no such thing ultimately as right and wrong. Values are relative. Truth is relative.
