25/ What it comes down to is the spirit captured by this young lady dancing to George Harrison's classic song, "What Is Life." Sadly, there are people who can't feel the meaning of Harrison's song and would simply resent this dancer's joy. They will lose.

16/ By 1980 I had on my own read Robert Cormier's, "The Chocolate War," Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451," Ken Kesey's "Flowers for Agernon" and William Golding's "Lord of the Flies." Ironically, I would be assigned each of these books a couple years later in junior high.

24/ Emotionally repressed people who can't genuinely love anyone or be vulnerable hate it when others are happy, free and joyous. So they have to own you. And if they can't own you, they want to kill you. That's Putin and Ukraine in a nutshell. Or the Christian right & liberals.

12/ It was a seminal moment in my life. Being rebellious for me became reading and absorbing as much controversial and "inappropriate" material as I could. Things started happening then as I told my mom I was tired of Dr. Seuss.

11/ So for young women who feel they'll never measure up to that sexy famous lady every man craves, a life of service to husband and country is portrayed as a fulfilling substitute. No you should never feel secure enough to go topless on a beach. But you can have lots of babies!

17/ This is a mindset we see weaponized in theocracies such as Iran, Putin's Russia, the Arab world as well as much of America today. As a Jew, I've been exposed to it among certain relatives that joined extreme sects. It's not just religious fundamentalists though.

7/ That rather joyless mindset co-exists with a portrayal of women as sex objects in popular entertainment. Hence the shy nerdy 20 year old lad I was on that beach had been conditioned by my country's culture of guilt and shame about sex as well as pictures of Farrah Fawcett.
