More From Edward Everett

Notwithstanding the trouble, notwithstanding the argument, notwithstanding the increasingly heavy hand of government, notwithstanding the spirit of arrogance we so often display, notwithstanding the growing tide of pornography and permissiveness, notwithstanding occasional corruption in public office and betrayal of sacred trust-i marvel at the miracle of america.
Betrayal America Government
The function of the rebel is to shake the fixated mores of the rigid order of civilization; and this shaking, though painful, is necessary if the society is to be saved from boredom and apathy. obviously i do not refer to everyone who calls himself a rebel, but only to the authentic rebel. civilization gets its first flower from the rebel.
Flower Order Civilization
I can't get upset about 'offensive to women' or 'offensive to blacks' or 'offensive to native americans' or 'offensive to jews' ... offend! i can't get worked up about it. offend!

Civilization after civilization, it is the same. the world falls to tyranny with a whisper. the frightened are ever keen to bow to a perceived necessity, in the belief that necessity forces conformity, and conformity a certain stability. in a world shaped into conformity, dissidents stand out, are easily branded and dealt with. there is no multitude of perspectives, no dialogue. the victim assumes the face of the tyrant, self-righteous and intransigent, and wars breed like vermin. and people die.
War Fall Self

My rebellion was telling my dad, "no, you're wrong, you don't know what's best for me. i'm not gonna waste my time in college." you know the story. he thought he was an abject failure 'cause he didn't convince me to go to college. i didn't rebel against my dad's economic status. i didn't rebel against what i thought were old-fashioned, archaic moral values. i didn't rebel by going out and wrecking the car and getting drunk and being irresponsible. i rebelled against their assumption they knew better than i did, what i wanted, and what i needed.
