one small difference after another
"I have never been especially impressed by the heroics of people who are convinced they are about to change the world. I am more awed by those who struggle to make one small difference after another."
American journalist (1941 - )

Civil Obedience
Public reenactment of a speech given by author and activist Howard Zinn at a peace rally in Boston Common on May 5, 1971. Zinn defends the use of civil disobedience to protest the war in Vietnam and calls on Congress to impeach the president and vice president of the United States for the high crime of waging war on the people of Southeast Asia. Matthew Floyd Miller, a New York-based actor delivered the speech on location in Boston on July 14, 2007.
Quotes:
"We need to do something to disturb that calm, smiling, murderous president in the White House... because for six years the President has carried on an unconstitutional war, and for six years the bodies of Americans have been coming home in plastic bags, and for six years the villages and countryside of Vietnam have been destroyed, and these members of Congress have been sitting there silently, passively, voting the money for this war."
"Young men will refuse to be drafted and women will defy the state, and we will refuse to pay our taxes, and we'll disobey. And they'll say we're disturbing the peace, but there is no peace. What really bothers them is that we are disturbing the war."

"“I hope you don’t have friends who recommend Ayn Rand to you. The fiction of Ayn Rand is as low as you can get re fiction. I hope you picked it up off the floor of the subway and threw it in the nearest garbage pail. She makes Mickey Spillane look like Dostoevsky.”

Paint it Black
here i am considering my mortality and wondering if the passion is only a reflection of a long, long time ago when synchronicity of synchronicity, Jagger pays a much appreciated visit which reminds me that its been a while so here i am watching a memory? no. a pale reflection of something . . . .
---- ah, i miss kickin' it with jamz, no, not metformin, or ambutol but trails and traces before the face-eating zombie apocalypse, yadda yadda
- - - - i ramble and digress: i love the stones, rock and roll, and i love that "If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes"
- - - i never get around to saying how much i like a memory: the one with the lovers and the tumor. well, i do so like it very much. kudos to memes. not that i care for tumors much but i do so love lovers even of the star-crossed variety (are there any others worth mentioning?)
- - - jagger does not dance as much as he rhyhmically walks across the stage. no? and this clip is already a generation old. phew!
- - - - do we step aside and make way for the new? or do we do what only we can do according to ourselves alone?
- - - enjoy the future, it will be exciting times.
me? "I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes"
Hmm, hmm, hmm...
