George Hanson: You know, this used to be a helluva good country. I can't understand what's gone wrong with it.Musilitar zei:Sinds wanneer is het wereldbeeld van hippies zo ontzettend verdraaid?
Hippies waren net mensen met een énorm open geest, ze waren bereid alles een kans te geven, gewoon handelend uit respect voor elkaar.
En ja, dit is waarschijnlijk een overdreven serieuze reactie, maar ik wilde toch even stellen dat het argument van hippies (of eerder, de mensen met een bepaalde instelling van geest uit de jaren '60, vooral in Amerika) als luizen dragend, ongewassen, rond een vuur dansend, dom, en kleingeestig, gewoon totaal verkeerd is.
Billy: Man, everybody got chicken, that's what happened. Hey, we can't even get into like, a second-rate hotel, I mean, a second-rate motel, you dig? They think we're gonna cut their throat or somethin'. They're scared, man.
George Hanson: They're not scared of you. They're scared of what you represent to 'em.
Billy: Hey, man. All we represent to them, man, is somebody who needs a haircut.
George Hanson: Oh, no. What you represent to them is freedom.
Billy: What the hell is wrong with freedom? That's what it's all about.
George Hanson: Oh, yeah, that's right. That's what's it's all about, all right. But talkin' about it and bein' it, that's two different things. I mean, it's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace. Of course, don't ever tell anybody that they're not free, 'cause then they're gonna get real busy killin' and maimin' to prove to you that they are. Oh, yeah, they're gonna talk to you, and talk to you, and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em.
Billy: Well, it don't make 'em runnin' scared.
George Hanson: No, it makes 'em dangerous.


toch tot de tweede categorie hoort.
