It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it.
All art is propaganda. It is universally and inescabably propaganda; sometimes unconsciously, but often deliberately, propaganda.
One of the necessary accompaniments of capitalism in a democracy is political corruption.
If we are the greatest nation the sun ever shone upon, it would seem to be mainly because we have been able to goad our wage-earners to this pitch of frenzy.
To do that would mean, not merely to be defeated, but to acknowledge defeat- and the difference between these two things is what keeps the world going.
Wall Street had been doing business with pieces of paper; and now someone asked for a dollar, and it was discovered that the dollar had been mislaid.
The old wanderlust had gotten into his blood, the joy of the unbound life, the joy of seeking, of hoping without limit.
The great corporation which employed you lied to you, and lied to the whole country—from top to bottom it was nothing but one gigantic lie.
It is impossible to get a man to understand something if his livelihood depends on him not understanding.
They were trying to save their souls- and who but a fool could fail to see that all that was the matter with their souls was that they had not been able to get a decent existence for their bodies?

The friend in my adversity I shall always cherish most. I can better trust those who have helped to relieve the gloom of my dark hours than those who are so ready to enjoy with me the sunshine of my prosperity.
I know only two tunes. One of them is ‘Yankee Doodle’ the other isn’t.
There are but few important events in the affairs of men brought about by their own choice.
The most confident critics are generally those who know the least about the matter criticised.
In every battle there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten then he who continues the attack wins.
There never was a time when, in my opinion, some way could not be found to prevent the drawing of the sword.
Leave the matter of religion to the family altar the church and the private school supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate.
The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving on.
No other terms than unconditional and immediate surrender. I propose to move immediately upon your works.
The distant rear of an army engaged in battle is not the best place from which to judge correctly what is going on in front.

Freedom in capitalist society always remains about the same as it was in ancient Greek republics: Freedom for slave owners.
There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.
Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle.
Give me just one generation of youth, and I’ll transform the whole world.
Unity is a great thing and a great slogan. But what the workers’ cause needs is the unity of Marxists, not unity between Marxists, and opponents and distorters of Marxism.
The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.
It is more pleasant and useful to go through the ‘experience of the revolution’ than to write about it.
There are no morals in politics; the is only experience. A scoundrel may be of use because he is a scoundrel.
Revolution can never be forecast; it cannot be foretold; it comes of itself. Revolution is brewing and is bound to flare up.
All official and liberal science defends wage-slavery, whereas Marxism has declared relentless war on that slavery.

If ardent passions push not men on to lofty enterprise, calm wisdom never will accomplish it.
The guilty is he who meditates a crime; the punishment is his who lays the plot.
To err is human; but contrition felt for the crime distinguishes the virtuous from the wicked.
That blood which thou hast spill’d, should join you closely in an eternal bond.
A conquering king will banish from his breast hatred towards one whom he no longer fears.
Thou knowest not the endless artifices of a court. Invented crimes are often there alleged; but real ones, and those especially, which may offend his pride, are oftentimes not to a king divulged.
There is a silence, the child of love, which expresses everything, and proclaims more loudly than the tongue is able to do; there are movements that are involuntary proofs of what the soul feels.
Heaven takes care that no man secures happiness by crime.
Where there are laws, he who has not broken them need not tremble.
Sometimes blood, for the sake of sparing it, is spilled.

Joanna Caroline Newsom is an American singer, songwriter, musician and actress. Born and raised in Northern California, Newsom was classically trained on the harp in her youth and began her musical career as a keyboardist in the San Francisco-based indie band The Pleased.
After recording and self-releasing two EPs in 2002, Newsom was signed to the independent label Drag City. Her debut album, The Milk-Eyed Mender, was released in 2004 to critical acclaim and garnered Newsom an underground following. She would receive wider exposure with the release of Ys (2006), which charted at number 134 on the Billboard 200.
She released two further albums: Have One on Me (2010) and Divers (2015), the latter of which outsold all of her previous albums.

Joanna Newsom’s 5 most popular quotes
It broke my heart when I learned the moon had been passing the sun’s light off as its own.
We deserve to know light. And grow evermore lighter and lighter.
What a woman does is open doors. And it is not a question of locking or unlocking.
Never get so attached to a poem that you forget truth that lacks lyricism.
I am producing sounds that people are not used to hearing from the harp.

Part of growing up is not waiting in line at a hipster breakfast restaurant. The eggs taste the same across the street. I promise.
My mother taught me to be nice to everybody. And she said something before I left home. She said, ‘I want you to always remember that the person you are in this world is a reflection of the job I did as a mother.’
Honestly, I have come to believe that everything is in the order it’s in for a reason. I am happy with who I am today.
The narrative of our lives is a total construct. We get to choose what that is. That is something I’ve realized as I’ve gotten older. I have a lot of choices about the story that I’m telling myself about my life. So where do I find meaning?
A man can certainly be a Muppet. Being a Muppet is a state of mind. It’s about finding that little part of you that’s unique, and not being embarrassed by it, but cherishing it.

In football, the worst things are excuses. Excuses mean you cannot grow or move forward.
The fans can accept a poor performance, but they won’t take it when you choose not to put in the effort.
If you train badly, you play badly. If you work like a beast in training, you play the same way.
I proved myself in Barcelona, and after I proved myself in Germany, I wanted to prove myself in England.
We need the whole squad, every player of the team, if we are to be successful.

David Michael Bautista, Jr. was born on January 18, 1969 in Washington, D.C., to Donna Raye (Mullins) and David Michael Bautista, a hairdresser. He has Filipino and Greek ancestry.
When WCW officials told him he’d never make it in sports entertainment, Bautista pushed himself to achieve his dream of being a superstar. In May 2002, he made his debut on SmackDown using the ring name Batista, but it wasn’t until a move to Raw and two victories over Kane that “The Animal” began to make noise in the WWE Universe. The wins impressed Ric Flair and Triple H, who were looking to align themselves with the industry’s brightest new stars. After a lengthy search, they identified Randy Orton and Jose Batista. Collectively, the four superstars became known as Evolution.

I’m not afraid to go up to people and pick their brains and ask for advice. To me, that’s how you get better. That’s how I’ve gotten better at everything I’ve ever done. Don’t be too proud to ask for help.
I’m a poor kid from the streets. What I’ve been able to achieve has really just been through hard work and not letting anyone tell me that I couldn’t do something. I always try to encourage people to just pursue your dreams.
I’m not a big guy. I’m not a menacing guy. I’m not an intimidating guy. I may look that way, but just spend two seconds talking to me, and you know that’s not who I am – not as a person, as a character. It’s not who I intend to be.
I didn’t want to be a movie star, I wanted to be an actor. Because acting is what I fell in love with, and acting is what is still challenging for me.
People look at me, and they have a certain perception, and they slap a label on me. The guy you saw in a wrestling ring is not who I am.

Kevin Michael Costner was born on January 18, 1955, in Lynwood, California, the third child of Bill Costner, a ditch digger and ultimately an electric line servicer for Southern California Edison, and Sharon Costner (née Tedrick), a welfare worker. His older brother, Dan, was born in 1950. A middle brother died at birth in 1953. His father’s job required him to move regularly, which caused Kevin to feel like an Army kid, always the new kid at school, which led to him being a daydreamer. As a teen, he sang in the Baptist church choir, wrote poetry, and took writing classes. At 18, he built his own canoe and paddled his way down the rivers that Lewis and Clark followed to the Pacific. Despite his present height, he was only 5’2″ when he graduated high school. Nonetheless, he still managed to be a basketball, football, and baseball star. In 1973, he enrolled at California State University at Fullerton, where he majored in business.

Kevin Costner’s 5 most popular quotes
When a defining moment comes along, you define the moment, or the moment defines you.
I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.
I have seen soldiers panic at the first sight of battle, and a squire pulling arrows from his body to fight and save his dying horse. Nobility is not a birthright, but is defined by one’s actions.
You can be as you choose to be. It’s an act of discipline sometimes, but it can be done.
We stand our best chance of leaving a legacy to those who want to learn, our children, by standing firm. In matters of style, hey, swing with the stream. But in matters of principle, you need to stand like a rock.

Let all of life be an unfettered howl. Like the crowd greeting the gladiator. Don’t stop to think, don’t interrupt the scream, exhale, release life’s rapture.
The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there, written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible.
I knew I had fallen in love with Lolita forever; but I also knew she would not be forever Lolita.
She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita.
We loved each other with a premature love, marked by a fierceness that so often destroys adult lives.
Knowing you have something good to read before bed is among the most pleasurable of sensations.
And presently I was driving through the drizzle of the dying day, with the windshield wipers in full action but unable to cope with my tears.
Some might think that the creativity, imagination, and flights of fancy that give my life meaning are insanity.
I mean, I have the feeling that something in my mind is poisoning everything else.
Curiously enough, one cannot read a book; one can only reread it. A good reader, a major reader, and active and creative reader is a rereader.
