before making posts like this. It just wasn’t where I thought it would be in the book. Quote’s still not as good as the one in the movie, it’s longer and more disjointed. Still amazing.

“I see the strongest and smartest men who have ever lived and these men are pumping gas and waiting tables.

If we could put these men in training camps and finish raising them.

All a gun does is focus an explosion in one direction.

You have a class of young strong men and women, and they want to give their lives to something. Advertising has these people chasing cars and clothes they don’t need. Generations have been working in jobs they hate, just so they can buy what they really don’t need.

We don’t have a great war in our generation, or a great depression, but we do, we have a great war of the spirit. We have a great revolution against the culture. The great depression in our lives. We have a spiritual depression.

We have to show these men and women freedom by enslaving them, and show them courage by frightening them.

Napoleon bragged that he could train men to sacrifice their lives for a scrap of ribbon.

Imagine, when we call a strike and everyone refuses to work until we redistribute the wealth of the world.

Imagine hunting elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center.”

Not as quick and powerful as the movie quote but I like it.
