And here is the point, about myself and my co-thinkers. Our belief is not a belief. Our principles are not a faith.

We may differ on many things, but what we respect is free inquiry, openmindedness, and the pursuit of ideas for their own sake.

Your antenna's out in a different way, and I love that time.

If most of those who took part in this one-dimensional debate were honest with themselves, they would admit that they do not in principle believe that the United States can do any good overseas for anyone but the American government, its armed forces, or privileged American elites.

Christopher Hitchens

It's very uncomfortable to hear them used when I don't agree with what's being said. But I recognize that those songs have entered into a bigger life, a life all their own. They belong to the audience. How they're used isn't always something I can control.

Tom Petty
