Allen Ginsberg [WWP464+]:
...I am physically, mentally and morally unable to earn moneys to pay for the Vietnam war. The basic, traditional ethics of my profession as Poet prohibit me from assigning money earned incidental to the publication of literary compositions pronouncing the inhumanity, ungodliness and contra-patriotic nature of this war toward funding the very same war.
...Equally clear is the awareness that so much as I may finance violence to others, equal measure of such violence shall be returned inevitably to my own person. I am absolutely afraid of this retribution.
