    In my life I’ve seen and played some small parts in the most amazing generation in the history of the world. We brought you civil rights, the youth movement, acid consciousness, the sexual revolution, rock & roll (the real thing, not Frankie Avalon), women’s liberation, hospice, and gay rights. We fought and died in foreign places. We saw the Kennedys and Martin Luther King gunned down. We were beat down and got the fuck back up in Mississippi, Chicago, Kent State. We turned on and worked harder to change the world. Some went to prison for their beliefs. We actually REDEFINED sex roles frozen for millennia.

    Of course there's a huge amount to be done - many, many lifetimes worth, but what a start!
