Such figures as Boy George do not disturb me nearly so much as do those relentlessly hetero (sexual?) keepers of the keys and seal...s, those who know what the world needs in the way of order and who are ready and willing to supply that order.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Social and scientific progress are assured, sir, once our great system of postpossession payments is in operation, not the install...ment plan, no sir, but a system of small postpossession payments that clinch the investment. No possible rational human wish unfulfilled. A man with a salary of fifty dollars a week can start payments on a Rolls-Royce, the Waldorf-Astoria, or a troupe of trained seals if he so desires.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Take, O take, those lips away, That so sweetly were forsworn;... And those eyes, the break of day, Lights that do mislead the morn: But my kisses bring again Bring again: Seals of love but sealed in vain,LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
That time of year thou mayst in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang... Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruined choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou see'st the twilight of such day As after sunset fadeth in the west; Which by and by black night doth take away, Death's second self, that seals up all in rest. In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire, That on the ashes of his youth doth lie, As the deathbed whereon it must expire, Consumed with that which it was nourished by. This thou perceiv'st, which makes thy love more strong, To love that well which thou must leave ere long.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

Yet from the parlor windows all along the coast you may see families of them sporting on the flats. They were as strange to me as the merman would be. Ladies who never walk in the woods, sail over the sea. To go to sea! Why, it is to have the experience of Noah,--to realize the deluge. Every vessel is an ark.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The report reflects incredibly terrible judgments, shockingly sparse concern for human life, instances of officials lacking the co...urage to exercise the responsibilities of their high office and some very bewildering thought processes.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
My generation, dear Ron, swore on the Altar of God that whoever proclaims the intent of destroying the Jewish state or the Jewish ...people, or both, seals his fate.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The white man regards the universe as a gigantic machine hurtling through time and space to its final destruction: individuals in ...it are but tiny organisms with private lives that lead to private deaths: personal power, success and fame are the absolute measures of values, the things to live for. This outlook on life divides the universe into a host of individual little entities which cannot help being in constant conflict thereby hastening the approach of the hour of their final destruction.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
To deny the need for comprehensive child care policies is to deny a reality--that there's been a revolution in American life. Gran...dma doesn't live next door anymore, Mom doesn't work just because she'd like a few bucks for the sugar bowl.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
