More From Joni Mitchell

If a thing is old, it is a sign that it was fit to live. old families, old customs, old styles survive because they are fit to survive. the guarantee of continuity is quality. submerge the good in a flood of the new, and good will come back to join the good which the new brings with it. old-fashioned hospitality, old-fashioned politeness, old-fashioned honor in business had qualities of survival. these will come back.
Business Style Survival
As i said just now, the world has gone past me. i don't blame it; but i no longer understand it. tradesmen are not the same as they used to be, apprentices are not the same, business is not the same, business commodities are not the same. seven-eighths of my stock is old-fashioned. i am an old-fashioned man in an old-fashioned shop, in a street that is not the same as i remember it. i have fallen behind the time, and am too old to catch it again.

"judge not, that ye be not judge"... is an abdication of moral responsibility: it is a moral blank check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank check one expects for oneself. there is no escape from the fact that men have to make choices; so long as men have to make choices, there is no escape from moral values; so long as moral values are at stake, no moral neutrality is possible. to abstain from condemning a torturer, is to become an accesory to the torture and murder of his victims. the moral principle to adopt... is: "judge, and be prepared to be judged."

Playing bridge is a pretty old fashioned thing in a way that i really like. i was watching my daughter ride horses this weekend and that is also a bit old fashioned but fun. i do the dishes every night - other people volunteer but i like the way i do it.

Let's ask their parents. and will those children point to their parents and tell us you really need to enforce the law against my parents? because they know what they were doing when they caused me to break the law. i don't think we've thought through this very well. but there's a reason why in the president's daca programs he didn't grant his unconstitutional executive amnesty to the parents of dreamers.
