men should advocating
No man should advocate a course in private that he's ashamed to admit in public.
sex military war
From secrecy and deception in high places; come home, America. From military spending so wasteful that it weakens our nation; come home, America. From the entrenchment of special privileges in tax favoritism; from the waste of idle lands to the joy of useful labor; from the prejudice based on race and sex; from the loneliness of the aging poor and the despair of the neglected sick - come home, America.
dream peace military
I'm fed up to the ears with old men dreaming up wars for young men to die in.
drinking beer water
Lastly, tea--unless one is drinking it in the Russian style--should be drunk WITHOUT SUGAR. I know very well that I am in a minority here. But still, how can you call yourself a true tea-lover if you destroy the flavour of your tea by putting sugar in it? It would be equally reasonable to put in pepper or salt. Tea is meant to be bitter, just as beer is meant to be bitter. If you sweeten it, you are no longer tasting the tea, you are merely tasting the sugar; you could make a very similar drink by dissolving sugar in plain hot water.
lying men giving
A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.
people language tradition
If thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought. A bad usage can spread by tradition and imitation even among people who should and do know better.
long mass standards
The masses never revolt of their own accord, and they never revolt merely because they are oppressed. Indeed, so long as they are not permitted to have standards of comparison, they never even become aware that they are oppressed.
writing people political
Good novels are not written by orthodoxy-sniffers, nor by people who are conscience-stricken about their own orthodoxy. Good novels are written by people who are not frightened.
love heart mean
To an ordinary human being, love means nothing if it does not mean loving some people more than others.
stupid believe ideas
Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.
sports war squash
Serious sport is war minus the shooting.
eye voice skulls
Always eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or bed- no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters in your skull.
men animal eggs
Man is the only creature that consumes without producing
worry limits poverty
Within certain limits, it is actually true that the less money you have, the less you worry.
