Ethan A. Russell Quotes
In Retrospect People Often Seem Embarrassed By That Time--the Late Sixties Into The Seventies--as If Suddenly Confronted With Some Lunatic Member Of Your Family, Once Revered, Now Disgraced. Even John Lennon, Who Would Hold On As Much As Anybody, Would At One Point Have To Declare, "Don't Give Me No More Brother, Brother." [...]
But, Really, So Much Was Accomplished, So Much Changed (and Even Less Noticed, A Lot Held On To), That It Seems Inappropriate To Be Quite So Uncomfortable With Our Past. For By Refusing To Accept The World As We Were Told To (most Pointedly The War In Vietnam) We Held On To Many Of The Traditional Values We Had Been Taught, Not The Least Of Which Was To Demand Accountability From Our Government. We Shouldn't Forget That A Lot Had To Change. For America Couldn't Forever Remain The Child Of The Hula-Hoop With The Arsenal Of Armageddon.
