“Everything that can weaken us as a race we have had for the last thousand years. It seems as if during that period the national life had this one end in view, viz how to make us weaker and weaker, till we have become real earthworms, crawling at the feet of every one who dares to put his foot on us. Therefore my friends, as one of your blood, as one that lives and dies with you, let me tell you that we want strength, strength, and every time strength.” IfsWantYearsRealEndsSeemsLastsDiesViewsRaceBloodFeetStrengthPeriodsThousandMy FriendsLet MeDareThousand YearsCrawling Book:Lectures from Colombo to Almora Source: Lectures from Colombo to Almora

I had no idea what I was doing. We all went in the early 2000s. Needless to say, I don't go anymore.

“I watch a sort of primitive form of the recommodification machine around my friends and myself in sixties, and it took about two years for this clumsy mechanism to get and try to sell us The Monkees.
