Some Things Never Change

"I'm sick of all these aggressive hippies or whatever they are, the Now Generation, sort of being very uptight,...you know, either on the street or anywhere, or on the phone, demanding,...as if I owed them something,...They come to the door with a fucking peace symbol and expect to just sort of march around the house or something,...They're under the delusion of awareness,...and that's what I'm sick of. I'm sick of them, they frighten me, a lot of uptight maniacs going around wearing fuckin' peace symbols."

-- John Lennon (the "smart" Beatle) in a 1971 interview with Rolling Stone's Jann Wenner.
