    —Marjorie Rosen (b. 1942)

    “I think that if most guys in America could somehow get their fave-rave poster girl in bed and have total license to do whatever they wanted with this legendary body for one afternoon, at least 75 percent of the guys in the country would elect to beat her up.”
    —Lester Bangs (1948–1982)

    “My generation of radicals and breakers-down never found anything to take the place of the old virtues of work and courage and the old graces of courtesy and politeness.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
