What a fantastic quote..
>You had to admire these folk singers,” he says on the live LP. “It takes courage to get up in a coffee house or a student auditorium and come out in favour of the things everyone else is against, like peace and justice and brotherhood, and so on.”
It's pretty much my reaction to every protest or social concern story in the media.
- vintermann 2y agoPart of the joke is that lots of people are against peace and justice and brotherhood in practice - often the majority.
- hardlianotion 2y agoI like that it is ambiguous. Something for everybody.

- p3rls 2y agoYeah when I gaze out into the sea of salty and stultified faces at these protests "what brave souls" is what runs through my head too, if only the state wasn't so finnicky about creating martyrs, their courage would surely triumph in the court of public opinion. Alas.
- dgfitz 2y agoI wonder how you would feel if you didn’t agree with their movement. Would you still call them brave?
