When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains, And the women come out to cut up what remains,... Jest roll to your rifle an' blow out your brains An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and... rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Just because we let them smelly fools ride us like horses don't mean we gotta let them brand us like horses. Maybe we ain't nothin...' but whores, but we, by God, we ain't horses.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Determination and skill come out of a depth of political and cultural experiences. Women resist and are brave in the most ordinary...-seeming situations: on a welfare line, after being told that medical benefits are going to cut; on a street late at night helping a sister who is being harassed; as a mother demanding that the hospital stop experimenting with sterilization on her daughters; one sister to another trying to convince her to stop shooting up because it's giving the man a victory, swallowing up her life.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Dollars! All their cares, hopes, joys, affections, virtues, and associations seemed to be melted down into dollars. Whatever the c...hance contributions that fell into the slow cauldron of their talk, they made the gruel thick and slab with dollars. Men were weighed by their dollars, measures were gauged by their dollars; life was auctioneered, appraised, put up, and knocked down for its dollars.

The more of that worthless ballast, honour and fair-dealing, which any man cast overboard from the ship of his Good Nature and Good Intent, the more ample stowage-room he had for dollars.

Do anything for dollars! What is a flag to them!LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
