QUOTES

Call it `Peace' or call it `Treason,'
Call it `Love' or call it `Reason,'
But I ain't marchin' anymore.

I ain’t marchin’ anymore
It’s always the old to lead us to the war
It’s always the young to fall
Now look at all we’ve won
with the saber and the gun
Tell me, is it worth it all?”

“There is a great satisfaction in having someone who disagrees with your political ideas humming your melodies. You might call it musical brainwashing.”

“Leave the old and dying America and use your creative energies to help form a new America, which would be demilitarized, more humanistic, where the police are less hostile and closer to the community, where the wealthy are not given unleashed power for the exploitation of the people.”
