I'd probably try to stop the rain forests from being cut down. I'd probably join the revolution down south somewhere and try to save my life on the planet Earth. I might go to Libya. I might go see the Ayatollah. I might go to France, catch somebody in France I'm upset with.
The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.
If I wanted to kill somebody, I'd take this book and beat you to death with it, and I wouldn't feel a thing.

How old am I? I'm as old as my mother told me. How's that?
I'm probably one of the most dangerous men in the world if I want to be. But I never wanted to be anything but me.
The POLICE used to watch over the people Now they are watching the people
Most of the attorneys just want the publicity of the trial. They don't care about the man at all. If there was some kind of writ that could get me out of here tomorrow, they wouldn't bring it, because they all want to go through the whole trial and wring every last drop of publicity out of the whole thing.
