Quote of the day

When Neil Young is fumbling around in his pocket looking for the right harmonica, it doesn't matter that he's a dude in the hat who is a man of the people - there's a theatricality there. You don't have to be David Bowie or the Kabuki theater to have that theatricality going on.

I will collect the evidence of your future conduct from what I know to be your opinions. "

One of our great allies at present is the Church itself. Do not misunderstand me.
