Octavio Paz Quote: “Technology is neutral and sterile. Now…”

Technology is neutral and sterile. Now, technology is the nature of modern man; it is our environment and our horizon.

Julian Bond Quote: “I do think that some of…”

I do think that some of us began to realize that this was going to be a long struggle that was going to go on for decades, and you’d have to knuckle down. A lot of people in our generation did that. They didn’t drop out and run away.
