Americans have never lost a war?
"As a southerner, I would say one of the main importances of the war was that southerners have a sense of defeat which none of the rest of the country has. You'll see in the movie 'Patton' the actor playing Patton saying 'we Americans have never lost a war.'
That's a rather amazing statement for him to make as Patton because Patton's grandfather was in Lee's Army of Northern Virginia, and he certainly lost a war." -Shelby Foote

The Beat Generation
"I've found psychedelics to be keys to worlds that have always existed, that have to be talked about." -- Ken Kesey (1935-2001)
"Our heads are round so thought can change direction" -- Alan Ginsburg (1926-1997) "We are actually fourth dimensional beings in a third dimensional body inhabiting a second dimensional world!" -- Neal Cassady (1926-1968) "Since we don't know where we're going, we have to stick together in case someone gets there." -- Ken Kesey "We must all face the fact that our leaders are certifiably insane or worse" - William S. Burroughs (1914-1997) "What's in store for me in the direction I don't take?" -- Jack Kerouac (1922-1969) "Whoever controls the media, the images, controls the culture." -- Alan Ginsburg "I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits." -- William S. Burroughs "You don't lead by pointing and telling people some place to go. You lead by going to that place and making a case." -- Ken Kesey "Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion." -- Jack Kerouac "I don't think there is any truth. There are only points of view." -- Alan Ginsburg "After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say 'I want to see the manager.'" -- William S. Burroughs "I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion." -- Jack Kerouac "There is nothing to be learned from history anymore. We're in science fiction now." -- Alan Ginsburg "How I hate those who are dedicated to producing conformity." -- William S. Burroughs "My life is a vast inconsequential epic." -- Jack Kerouac "The world news might not be therapeutic." -- Ken Kesey "The time has come, everybody lie down so you won't get hurt when the sun bursts." -- Neal Cassady

"The liberty of the press in this country can only be maintained by the vigilance of the people and the vigilance of the Parliament and the courage of the newspapers themselves. That’s the only way. Therefore we must fight, fight, fight to retain those liberties."
Michael Foot as acting editor of the Evening Standard, coming to the defence of the Daily Mirror in 1942. The Mirror had published the following cartoon by Philip Zec in March 1942 which so infuriated Prime Minister Winston Churchill (due to his misreading of the cartoon's intentions), that he almost had the newspaper shut down:

An astonishing cartoon by Zec but times have changed and I'm not sure I understand the point of it.
At first it looks as if, in despair, the man has committed suicide. Or - he's doggedly fighting on? If there's no petrol for his ship, he'll use a raft? The cartoonist ironically mentions the increase in the price of petrol - because it's so unimportant? I suppose people understood it better at the time - even though Churchill didn't. |
