• Whatcha gonna do to this?
  You may be older than me, but you're new to this.
  Cause I been out there, queen of MC's,
  When your man was walkin' round in mocknecks and Lee's.
  While you were over here perpetratin' a fraud,
  I was overseas on the charts with Boy George.

  Havin' other competition for dinner.
  Sit you on the table with a plate and cup,
  Say grace...and then eat your ass up.

• There does exist and has existed for a generation, an international Anglophile network which operates, to some extent, in the way the radical Right believes the Communists act. In fact, this network, which we may identify as the Round Table groups, has no aversion to cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups, and frequently does so. I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for 20 years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960s, to examine its papers and secret record.

• It makes that a virtue which is not a virtue, and that a crime which is not a crime. Religion consists in a round of observances that have no relation whatever to natural goodness, but which rather exclude it by being a substitute for it. Penances and pilgrimages take the place of justice and mercy, benevolence and charity. Such a religion, so far from being a purifier, is the great corrupter of morals.

• The full horror of what has happened in the United States earlier today is now becoming clearer. It is hard even to contemplate the utter carnage and terror which has engulfed so many innocent people.

But it is plain that citizens of many countries round the world, including Britain, will have been caught up in this terror.

• May it not also be that the cause of civilization itself will be defended by the skill and devotion of a few thousand airmen?

• The House
  
  ...She lays her beams in music,
  In music everyone,
  To the cadence of the whirling world
  Which dances around the sun-
  That so they shall not be displaced
  By lapses or by wars,
  But for the love of happy souls
  Outlive the newest stars.

• I've wanted to be a drummer since I was about five years old. I used to play on a bath salt container with wires on the bottom, and on a round coffee tin with a loose wire fixed to it to give a snare drum effect. Plus there were always my Mum's pots and pans. When I was ten, my Mum bought me a snare drum. My Dad bought me my first full drum kit when I was 15. It was almost prehistoric. Most of it was rust.
