“Human beings have an inalienable right to invent themselves; when that right is pre-empted it is called brain-washing.”
- Germaine Greer (b. 1939), Australian feminist writer: in “The Times” (London), February 1, 1986.
“Most people, I’m convinced, don’t think about life at all. They grab what they think they want and the subsequent consequences keep them busy in an endless chain till they’re carried out feet first.”
- Philip Larkin (1922 – 1985), British poet: letter, October 30, 1949, published in “Selected Letters of Philip Larkin 1940 – 1985”, (editor, Anthony Thwaite), 1992.
“Crime is an equal-opportunity employer. It never discriminates. Anybody can enter the field. You don’t need a college education. You don’t need a G. E. D. You don’t have to be any special color. You don’t need white people to like you. You’re self-employed. As a result, criminals are very independent people.”
- Ice-T (b. 1958), American rapper: “The Ice Opinion” (written by Heidi Sigmund), 1994.
