“More truly characteristic of dissent is a dignity, an elevation, of mood and thought and phrase. Deep conviction and warm feeling are saying their last say with knowledge that the cause is lost. The voice of the majority may be that of force triumphant, content with the plaudits of the hour, and recking little of the morrow. The dissenter speaks to the future, and his voice is pitched to a key that will carry through the years.” YearsMayLittlesFeelingsLastsLawLostSpeakForceCausesVoiceHoursKeysDignityMajorityConvictionWarmMoodPhrasesCharacteristicsDissentMorrowTriumphantThrough The YearsElevation Author:Benjamin Cardozo
“I have always had this very strong, call it a feeling, call it a prejudice, call it a conviction ... that the mysteries are not easily available. You have to earn entrance into them. You didn't learn things for too little. You had to pay a price. And I felt that LSD was just blasting superhighways into the mysteries. And what I really didn't like about LSD is that people who were taking it were seeming to become less and less as they took it. They got emptier and more vapid.” PeopleLittlesFeelingsStrongFeltPayMysteryPrejudiceConvictionAvailableVery StrongSeemingEntrancesLsdVapid Author:Norman Mailer
