There is a lot of sixties-bashing going on these days that I don't agree with at all. I feel that extremely important ideals were brought to the forefront of the collective consciousness at that time.

But many of the people who were young in the sixties and who were most touched by that collective ethos are still touched. — Marianne Williamson
