More From Allen Ginsberg

What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

In all this world there is no substitute for personal integrity. it includes honor. it includes performance. it includes keeping one's word. it includes doing what is right regardless of the circumstances
Integrity Honor World
In the depths of every heart, there is a tomb and a dungeon, though the lights, the music, and revelry above may cause us to forget their existence, and the buried ones, or prisoners whom they hide. but sometimes, and oftenest at midnight, those dark receptacles are flung wide open. in an hour like this, when the mind has a passive sensibility, but no active strength; when the imagination is a mirror, imparting vividness to all ideas, without the power of selecting or controlling them; then pray that your grieves may slumber, and the brotherhood of remorse not break their chain.
Heart Dark Grieving
This inescapable duty to observe oneself: if someone else is observing me, naturally i have to observe myself too; if none observe me, i have to observe myself all the closer.
Health Duty Ifs
We can conceive a thinking being to have either many or few perceptions. suppose the mind to be reduced even below the life of anoyster. suppose it to have only one perception, as of thirst or hunger. consider it in that situation. do you conceive any thing but merely that perception? have you any notion of self or substance? if not, the addition of other perceptions can never give you that notion.
Thinking Self Oysters
Happiness is your real nature. you identify with yourself with the body and mind, feel it's limitations, and suffer. realize your true self in order to open the store of happiness. that true self is the reality, the supreme truth, which is the self of all the world you now see, the self of all the selves, the one real, the supreme, the eternal self - as distinct from the ego or the bodily idea for the self.

I learned something from that. if someone asks me something that i really don't want to do, i say no. i have to trust that. and i'm not afraid to talk money.

It's ok if we wiretap osama bin laden. i want to know what he's planning - obviously not him nowadays, but that kind of thing. i don't care if it's a pope or a bin laden. as long as investigators must go to a judge - an independent judge, a real judge, not a secret judge - and make a showing that there's probable cause to issue a warrant, then they can do that. and that's how it should be done.
Real Independent Issues
It's very hard to track down what's real and what's not real. we haven't absorbed what climate change is doing. because whether people associate it or not, fear of immigration is completely related to climate change, because the mass migrations that are happening, the war in syria, all of these structural human migrations are related to climate change.
