"Just because someone is not resisting in the same way you are does not mean they are not resisting. Being told you are a worthless peice of shit and not believing it is a form of resistance. One girl calling another girl to warn her about a guy who date raped her, is another. And while she may look like a big haired make-up girl who goes out with jocks she is a soldier along with every other girl, and even though she may not be fighting in the same the same loud way that some of can (and do) it is the fact that she is resisting that connects us, puts a peice together."

-Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth)

Lydia Lunch on O.J. Simpson: "He deserves the same treatment he gave his wife. He should be forced to dye his hair blonde, get breast implants, bare two children, and then be slaughtered on the steps of his own home."

-Ani Difranco
