Quotation 81

  1. The Beatles
  2. Revolution
1968
Term
Sexual intercourse began
In nineteen sixty-three
(Which was rather late for me)-
Between the end of the
Chatterley ban
And the Beatls' first LP.

Up to then there'd be only been
A sort of bargaining
A wrange for the ring.
A shame that started at sixteen
And spread to everything

Then all at once the quarrel sank:
Everyone felt the same,
And every life became
A brilliant breaking of the bank,
A quite unlosable game.

So life was never better than
In nineteen sixty-three
(Though just too late for me) -
Between the end of the
Chatterley ban
And the Beatles' first LP

Quotation 82

"The revolutionary woman must know her enemies, the doctors, psychiatrists, health visitors, priests, marraige counsellors, policemen, magistrates, and genteel reformers...My fantasy [is] that it may be possible to leap the stpes of revolution and arrive somehow at liberty and communism without strategy of revolutionary discipline."

Women must "Stop loving the victors in violent encounters [or social superiors]...Women must not marry...Women must reject their role as the principal consumers in the capitalist state...They should form household cooperatives...and use cosmetics strictly for fun."

"Women's liberation, if it abolishes the patriarchial family will abolish a necessary substructure of the authoritarian state, and once that withers away Marx will have come true willy-nilly."

"It was the year of years, the year of craziness, the year of fire, blood and death. I had just turned 21, and I was as crazy as everyone else...[But] what did we accomplish [by rioting at Columbia in 1968]? Not much of anything. It's tru that the gymnasium project was scrapped, but the real issue was Vietnam, and the war dragged on for seven more horrible years. You can't change government policy by attacking a private institution...We at Columbia were powerless, and our little revolution was no more than a symbolic gesture. But symbolic gestures are not empty gestures, and given the nature of thos etimes, we did what we could."
