“I saw the comics in the East Village Other, and they weren't superhero comics, they were all about hippies and all about things hippies were interested in. And there was one page in particular, a full page strip called "Gentle's Trip Out" signed "Panzika", and it was totally, totally psychedelic, and really, I don't know if it made any sense at all but it looked so great, and I thought, "This is what I want to do, this is my big influence," and it was.” IfsKnowsWantMadeBigsSawsInfluenceParticularPagesEastGentleVillageSuperheroHippiePsychedelicEast Village Author:Trina Robbins
“By speech first, but far more by writing, man has been able to put something of himself beyond death. In tradition and in books an integral part of the individual persists, for it can influence the minds and actions of other people in different places and at different times: a row of black marks on a page can move a man to tears, though the bones of him that wrote it are long ago crumbled to dust.” PeopleMenWritingMindFirstsLongHas BeensBookDifferentAbleActionMovingIndividualBlackInfluenceTearsSpeechPagesTraditionMarkIndividualityBonesDustLong AgoPersistDifferent PlaceDifferent Times Author:Julian Huxley

“Motherhood is the greatest potential influence either for good or ill in human life. The mother's image is the first that stamps itself on the unwritten page of the young child's mind. It is her caress that first awakens a sense of security; her kiss, the first realization of affection; her sympathy and tenderness, the first assurance that there is love in the world.” WorldMindFirstsHumansChildrenYoungMotherInfluenceSecurityKissingPagesIllAffectionMotherhoodRealizationHuman LifeTendernessStampsAssuranceYoung ChildrenCaressUnwritten Author:David O.

“They wouldn’t have believed me, and if they had they would have wanted me to explain. And I had no explanation, no answers. When you’re on a battleground, you don’t have the luxury of time to dwell on the various historical factors and sociopolitical influences that caused the war. You just keep your head down and try to survive it, to shove the pages back in the book, close the covers and pretend that nothing’s broken, nothing’s wrong.” IfsTryingBookWarWantedAnswersInfluenceBrokenPagesDown AndHistoricalVariousFactorsLuxuryExplanationBattleground Book:Good in Bed Source: Good in Bed
