“I’d better get right down to the job.
It’s true I don’t want to join the Army or turn lathes in
precision parts factories, I’m nearsighted and psychopathic anyway.
America I’m putting my queer shoulder to the wheel.”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“Reasoning with a drunkard is like
Going under water with a torch to seek for a drowning man.”
—Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
