Americans love to read about violence.

The '60s are presented to kids today as a commodity.

I wish I could take back some of the things I said and some of the things I did. But in the bigger picture, I don't feel that it was violent and terrible. I feel like it was primarily--obviously not completely--moral, based on a vision that the government should be better, and that people could be better, and that democracy should be real.

I just feel that I don't agree with sensationalized versions of history or me. Any version that's sensationalized.

I think the Sixties in some ways is a barrier to young people today. They think of it, you know, what we're doing is not that. But it's partly the myth of the Sixties. It always felt embattled and small. It always, almost always, was a small group of people relative to the opposition around.

I wish that I had bridged the feminist movement and the anti-war movement better than I did.

Over all, many of society's values are a cesspool.
