Amen. Amen.

Amen.

Amen.

Article 1 of the amendments to the Constitution of the United States of

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or

prohibiting the free exercise thereof or abridging the freedom of speech or of

the press or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition

government for a redress of grievances.

I don't think that this dividing things into adults and children works very

well, especially when you put on the outside of the movie house, which is

allowed to adults, very careful pictures of all that's going on inside that the

adults can't see. They're in a breaking point between youth and middle age where

what is...

Good to one is evil to the other. And this gets mixed up with a censorship

problem. You, as a member of the clergy, feel about government censorship?

Censorship? Yes, any kind of censorship in the arts, for instance. Like Mark

Twain said about the sermon, when they asked him when he came from church, they

talked about sin, and they said, well, what was the preacher's point of view?

Was a guinnet.

And that's what I think about censorship.

First of all, I exclude children.

Legally, a child doesn't have full civil rights.

Let's get down to something of greater importance.

What do you consider the age? By that, I actually mean...

is an adult, an infant, all of his life. Therefore, you should be the judge as

to what he should hear, what he should do, what he should say.

I hold a 21, is he?

Approximately 21, 18.

Well, but 18, they're going to war, so how can you even say 21? If they're old

enough to die, then they're old enough to... Yes.

What I feel is that I really don't feel that we have a right...

to say what people should see, what people should do,

unless they are actually hurting individuals and

a strong believer in the right of self -determination, intellectually and

otherwise, and unless there is an absolute attempt to destroy people, I

think it's nobody's goddamn business.

The repressive nature of this government is seen in its attitude towards

censorship.

For the last 20 years, the U .S. Customs Bureau has stopped the importation of

artistic films through the American Civil Liberties Union and other legal

organizations. This has been changing.

But I believe with Attorney General Mitchell, this repression will be

up. And in many small towns in the United States, films that can be seen in

York are not allowed to be exhibited because of local pressure from churches

businessmen. We are in New York where the climate is a little different.

And you, young lady, can we ask you a question or two?

No. You have nothing at all to say about... Why is that?

I'm 15.

I'm not... Seeing that I'm 15...

The establishment tells me that I have to be 18 to register

an opinion. I have to be 21 to vote.

Fifteen is just too young.

You feel it's too young?

I don't feel it's too young. I don't think age has anything to do with it.

You feel you're intelligent and have a right to this information?

Yes. To what kind of information?

To any sort of information there is.

Well, it depends upon the mood I'm in.

I kind of split personality about the thing.

In general, I'm all for total freedom and let people say what they want and

things of that kind. I'm not sure that I always think that.

It's probably wrong to be so inconsistent, but that's who I am.

What damage would it do to you to see, let's say, a pornographic movie or a

movie that would have a rating as pornographic?

Well, of course, I have a certain breadth of scope of imagination and

that allows me to see these things without being harmed. But you think that

might harm someone else who does not have this breadth of this scope?

Certainly. The who?

Well, these jerks I keep bumping into on the subway.

I mean, there's a... You mean the man? You mean the public? The nominator,

the average man.

I agree with Margaret Mead that it's pretty fine, and that makes it

pornographic.

She's defined, it's been defined and labeled such a thing so now everybody

what pornography is. The fact is that that whole approach to pornography,

me, that whole approach to labeling is really what turns things pornographic.

I think there's entirely too much censorship in every facet of life.

I feel it's imposing on a person's personal rights and he should decide for

himself what he can't see.

Not want to see.

What do you feel about a picture like this? Well, that's not a fair question,

Anthony, because I've seen it once. It's my second. I want to go back and see it

again. You know what? I feel like I've been dragged here.

I feel like I didn't get all the meat off at first time.

Like Dr.

Zavago at that price. Because the first time I filmed, I hadn't quite

interpreted it correctly. And I saw it again.

I'm going again for the second and same reason. Do you know what I think?

I think that he's conned us into this by making us think it's philosophical when

it's just plain pornographic, but we're going to go find out. Well, what do you

feel about it being pornographic?

Well, personally... I don't think it's good if it's pornographic.

No, actually, I don't ask other people about their sex life, and I don't want

them to ask them about mine. I prefer it when they close the door.

Then you're saying maybe not on the screen?

I don't think I want to see it, but I'm being...

But you're going to take your violets in and you're going to see it. That was a

significant movie in that it's even playing.

I think it's... I haven't seen it. We were just seeing the movie. I don't

there's anything now that's going to offend us. I'd be more offended by

movie, a John Lennon type movie, where people are getting killed and

rather than people making love.

There's nothing offensive about that.

The consumer censorship. People don't have to see something that they don't

to. There should be no restrictions upon preventing other people from seeing

something.

Rather than just sort of dominant, pure technical morality.

If the society was not so restrictive and sexually hung up about sex, people

wouldn't be going to see this movie as much as they... The whole spate of

pornographic movies, which are out, or semi... The word really exists, I don't

know, but, you know, lewd -type movies.

People wouldn't be going to see them if the society was so hung up about sex,

because people would be able to express themselves sexually without the need to

see. people do in the movies.

Yes,

I think I would say that I have this right and that other people should have

same right. And I think there's some scientific evidence for this now.

With the experiment in Denmark, and I'm not sure about Sweden, but I have read a

little about Denmark, that they found that the incidence of sex crimes has

actually decreased since they've done away with censorship of pornographic

materials and films.

And I think this would more likely be the result than increase of sex crimes

sex deviations and so forth.

So I think it's worth...

A try for society to try a total non -censorship situation.

I'm Matt.

My name is Leslie.

Huh.

How long are you going to do this?

They're staying the whole summer.

We're working at a motel in town.

My name is Leslie.

Tom.

How long are you going to be here?

Well, we're staying the summer.

We're working at a motel in town.

If you want to, why don't you quit your jobs and move in with me?

I have a place out here out on the dunes.

Think it over.

Don't even talk about it for a couple of days. Just think it over.

Come on out anytime.

Either alone or together.

That's how I get when they talk about your work.

There's sand in these sandwiches.

He's old, Penny. You know me.

I told him he might as well make up his mind which he was going to be.

Zoe doesn't sell it except through his dealer. And that's the only hard line he

knows.

Through my dealer?

Like, wow, huh?

Stop kicking the sunburn, Margo.

Friends.

Francisco.

Franklin.

F. Carmichael Michaels, awake.

Why don't you let him sleep?

Shut up.

You see?

You see, Barbara?

There are trains of thought.

Sometimes I think people around here just haven't seen a woman.

A real woman.

You're not getting the right kind of attention?

I'm not getting any.

Yet.

You got any diet?

Coffee, tea, or milk?

Coffee. I think I'll go for a walk.

I see a lot of interesting older types around us here.

Saw Jerry and Duffy down at the slum.

Anybody new down there?

No.

Yes. Two friends of Max's.

A boy.

And a girl.

College kids, they think.

They'll probably stay out there with him. Won't they?

Probably. I suppose.

They say that Max... They say Max has a strong personality.

Well, Fonzie's that pickle. You don't get enough of him, bitch.

Yeah.

Everybody says that.

Strong personality.

Otherwise, there's nobody interesting around this year.

It's a few high school jerks down at Viva's.

Bye -bye.

You'll be back by dark or what?

Yeah, or maybe after.

Well, if we're not here, we'll probably be at the LSD.

Maybe at the Grease Club.

Ron?

Well, somebody will be home by midnight, I think.

I think that's why I found myself responding,

well, physically yeah, but like, intellectually too, you know what I

With, you know, the other day.

You know, being taken so suddenly.

So... How did you feel when that

happened?

How did I feel?

How did you feel?

I don't know.

I liked it, but not at first.

I don't know. Maybe it was the situation.

But...

I guess he knows what he's doing. I guess that's it.

Yeah.

Technique, huh?

Um, yeah, technique.

Are you going out there tonight?

Can I come with you?

Didn't we think it might be a better idea to find out which one of us he's

interested in? You know, before we took him up on his mission.

Why don't you... Scared?

Not really.

You'll be at the hotel tonight, won't you?

Yeah, I'll be there.

How long?

Okay.

I'll see you around the night, sir. Bye.

Just a little bit of love That's all I ask for

A little bit of love Nothing more

Just a little bit of love That's what the

whole world is waiting for Be a flower

Open up your petals and reach for the

skies.

Spring shower, let the love drops settle into

your heart upon your face.

Let them wash clear your eyes.

See how the beautiful...

flowers grow facing the sun

Let's do it.

Barbara, tell Leslie what you think of me.

You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in the world.

Men must be crazy about you.

Tom couldn't make it tonight.

He had to work.

Well, goodbye for now.

Leslie, explain your body to Barbara.

Oh. You don't mind, do you?

No, okay.

Start with the Montana.

Five minutes.

It's just the Montana.

It's my turn.

No, I can't, Mike. Uh -oh.

I don't have the time.

No.

We didn't mean to dig with us.

No. Oh, no.

You'd better reassure us how it's all right.

Yeah.

It's all right.

It's fine.

Oh.

Well.

Okay.

Be a flower.

Open up your petals and reach for the sky.

Spring shower, let the love drops settle into

your heart upon your face. Let them wash clear your eyes.

A riddle and the mystery one seeks to reveal.

The Jews have always said, control thyself.

This is the way.

And the Christians have said, know thyself.

And the Hindus say, be thyself.

Be thyself.

Barbara, in order to know what we give to

to others of our bodies.

It's necessary to know what we give to ourselves in our body.

It is important to know our bodies themselves.

It is important to know what we can give ourselves in order to determine, in

order to break through the boundaries of our generosities, in order to expand

our capability for giving.

Touching me in love. Tell me whether or not my skin does not rush to meet you

You've got to bring me up first

Important things in the need that you can strike out with the foot So did you

hit with the bottom of the foot or the side of the foot rod like the side of

hand?

Thing is that along with expanding your capacity for pleasure, and you have by

now, you know.

Also, well, you were a virgin to start.

Thank goodness that's over with. Well, along with expanding your capacities for

pleasure, you have to expand your capacity for pain.

Oh, wow.

How exciting. It's like Chairman Mao and the sex commander.

Explore your capacities.

Explore your capacities.

You know what I dig the most, Max, out of all of it with Leslie and Barbara, is

making it with you.

I like it.

Although it doesn't have anything to do with you, really.

Although I do like you.

Great, so?

Shit, I can't get enough of it.

You know, I always thought of myself as a fairly liberated type, you know, stud

and all.

I mean, Leslie and I have been together for three years, everything great.

But to make it with men, you know, I just never thought I could.

And now I suppose you can't get enough of it, huh?

Right.

But how much is enough, you know?

As much as you want, right? Or as much as you need?

Can I direct today?

I'm feeling... I'm feeling very domineering. Why not? Why not? Give me

matches back.

Oh.

Okay.

Tom, you are now under my strict command.

You'll do everything I tell you.

And Leslie, you know what'll happen to you if you don't do exactly like I say.

Yes, ma 'am.

Okay?

First, Max will leave and go and pick today's flowers.

And Leslie, you'll see to it that the zucchini isn't overdone and that I'm

at least one bowl of rice.

Before we're done.

Here, you better do this.

I'm not too good, dude.

Oh, wow.

Here, do you think you've got it in?

Mm -mm, I don't know. You tell me.

Here, I'll let you see.

I think he lost the ground.

God, these chopsticks got so dirty. Hey, not this one. This one. I just took it

out of that.

Oh.

Lost it. Fingers are dirty anyway.

Ready? Mm.

Hey, come on. Mm.

Ugh.

Did you get it? Nope.

I'll take... I'll take the rice, because the rice is nice.

Because the rice is nice.

You bet.

Breakout.

Yeah, pretty soon we're going to have to start wearing bathing suits all the

time. Yeah.

That's a drag. Oh, come on. You know, I think in the last month we've done some

pretty good work.

I mean, we've sort of been in training, you know.

I think we've got over being embarrassed about making it in a public situation.

But now, I don't know. I think we have to go outside of our own circle.

I think we're ready for it.

Yeah,

I'm tired of messing around.

I haven't done hardly anything, you know.

Just kissed a few kids.

All that petting crap.

It could be very important for me to meet some new people now.

I might even like them.

Better than you, or at least as well.

Well, you know, we've been doing some pretty exotic things, Max.

Exotic as far as others are concerned.

You're not talking about yourself, though, are you? No.

Leslie, Tom's afraid that you've gotten too much into being hurt.

And he's afraid that, well, you might get into something with somebody who

doesn't know how to handle you. Right?

Well, you know, it's not that I like being hurt, really. Oh, come on.

Everybody, just everybody has always treated me so nicely, you know. I really

dig the other thing. You know, being used like an object.

You know, it's exciting.

Give you what you want here, you know.

You're a state, Max. I think that's it.

Yeah, so... Right back in.

I don't know how to fix these things.

I really would love to be helping.

I kind of think that maybe during the next few weeks, we should all make it

people outside of our own circle. Everybody make it with at least three

Different people.

And we only make it with each other here amongst ourselves casually.

Okay.

But I don't know. We've been training for freedom, and freedom is our tool for

exploring human behavior.

But I don't know how I'm going to do anything if I have to eat all this brown

rice, all this macrobiotic stuff.

Well, you guys, you're all dissolved.

You're beautiful already.

To me.

I just know this stuff isn't going to make me sexy or anything.

Well, it keeps you trim, Barbara.

Is that how come you can stay hard for 24 hours, Max? Brown rice?

It helps.

Here.

Try them.

I don't know.

I sure could use a Pepsi Cola.

That's delicious.

A couple of fags. I say.

And look at that one.

Mary, wow, the bow -legged lady.

Firstly, this is, as they say, a free country.

Secondly... Secondly... Secondly, your mother eats dirty dog dicks.

For free.

Your mother eats dirty dog dicks for free.

Your mother.

Your mother!

Crawl, faggot!

Faggot?! Take off your pants.

Come on, sucker, I get the fish for it.

I thought I might pick up one of the girls that I used to like.

College, clean -looking.

Part -time waitresses or girls that are down here for weekends on the summer.

Saltwater dookie.

We'll do you, but not all the way.

I gave it to her.

Leslie says he's built like that.

Who's this, Leslie?

Really, one of your smoothest faves.

I saw him down at the scene the other day, dancing and carrying on with all

those funky natural rhythms you like to think these types have, you know?

Name's Sam, would you believe it?

Yeah, he's divine.

You know, his skin, like, color like, you know, rich chocolate. Really chunky

good.

He's only a little hostile.

But anyway, he's got all these little white chicks in his bag, right?

So when I come on as an equal, well, I think it really spaced him out, you

So you know me, little Miss Bryn Mawr. I told him that I had anything he wanted,

and if he hurried, he could get some of it.

So?

Well, he dug that.

Well, tell him about me.

And I told him that if I didn't have it, I thought my little friend would.

Me. So?

He dug that.

He's had some experience in fucking, some life and all that, right?

But often very neurotic.

Would you care to take your orders now or later?

Do you have croissants tomorrow night?

Uh, yes.

Then I'll have croissants and a large double espresso and some fresh butter if

you have it. Tom?

Um,

I'll have the same, please.

What else?

Hi, we were just talking about you. Hey. I was just telling our friends Tom and

Max. Max and Tom, this is Sam.

We were just talking about you.

That is to say, Wesley was telling us what a good dancer you are and how she

really enjoyed dancing with you and that I'd like to try it myself sometime.

Well, you have a very lovely build, as I'm sure you must know.

And in fact... How long are you going to be around, ma 'am?

I said you'd be around the bar about two weeks, right?

Mm -hmm.

Okay.

Hey, listen.

I'll see you around midnight, okay? If I'm not back by dinner, I'll see you at

meditation for one at least.

Ciao. Ciao.

Everybody, change your places. Turn your head and find new faces.

That's all.

You must know that thing, you know, that something is not...

Thank you.

Music and dance.

Oh well.

At least they told me how to masturbate properly.

Might as well get this over with.

France? France, it's me, Barbara.

Open up.

France? I've been watching you through the keyhole. Open up.

Well,

better than nothing, right?

Are there any wild animals around?

Only copperheads and rattlesnakes. Oh, good. Nothing to worry about. They'll

kill it. We'll have it for dinner.

And we set up right over here. Oh, wow. This is fantastic.

Come on, son. You like it? Yeah.

Good.

Good. I'll tell you what, man. You can go get some firewood for the hundred,

right?

Just a few.

No, no. No, thanks. Go ahead. Get some firewood.

Is this enough?

No, it's not enough. We need more wood.

Get more wood. I'll make the fire.

We need a lot of wood.

Hey, I got one Some

place I don't know

you like clams.

Yeah Yeah

Oh, the cake. Oh, boy.

Now we can have it.

Get in.

Come on.

Come on, get in there.

Everybody masturbates.

Everybody fantasizes while they do so.

It's a good idea, therefore, to utilize fantasies you cannot avoid to give you

something like insight into either yourself or those around you.

Remember, in the act of self -love, you're playing with your mind as well as

your body.

Now, think of what you've done lately and tell us.

Remember, all stories are love stories.

And we'll begin with you, Barbara.

I don't know why, but I'd never imagine my parents having a true sex life.

But I was wrong.

By accident, I found they did, after all.

I didn't mean to.

Yes, you did, but... No!

Pitch hiking is a gas.

Somebody you've never seen before picks you up and says, how far are you going?

And I said, all the way, ma 'am, to New York.

Get in, she said.

But she didn't mean only the car.

She was so uptight and kind of pathetic.

In need of some tender love and care.

Love and care.

Love. Love.

Love.

She had the look of an ordinary county wife and heavens knows she led the women

proper life she never strayed or let a stranger pass the boulder door she had a

strict regard for marriage and the law she was a perfect lady member

of the county life and she was known to have a sweet and gentle way oh to be

sure she was a woman you could count upon

To take the minutes at the local PTA.

Just an ordinary woman. An ordinary woman with an ordinary lofty, lofty

life. But in her dreams she was a queen. A golden vamp

upon the movie screen. She tortured men at every turn.

And when she walked... A million fires burned She dreamed of nights

of lust and love and fire Flesh and fame and mad desire

And no

one really knew the ordinary county wife She lived her ordinary life from day to

day Just baking pies, cleaning house and shopping at the store She had a strict

regard for marriage and the law.

Just an ordinary woman, an ordinary woman with an ordinary lousy,

daughty life.

An ordinary woman, an ordinary woman,

an ordinary lousy, daughty.

She was content and seemed as happy as could be.

Just an ordinary woman.

Just leave everything to dear old Alice.

How do you like my big, fuzzy white pussy, baby?

You're in school, aren't you?

Yes, ma 'am.

Do you really give a French culture, baby?

They have a word for it.

Another word.

I always say a little accent. So we're the main words, don't you think?

I sure do.

Bye YouTube. Bye

YouTube.

An ordinary, larty, darty life.

Leslie, Leslie, tell the guys about your lesbian trip.

Far out.

Well, um, you know.

Yes? It was, uh, fun, really.

Yeah, very interesting.

Did you like it?

Well, I liked seeing you there.

And the dice.

Do you go to the bar often?

An interesting assortment.

So eminently predictable.

The usual tough guy bartender.

Too inhibited to be really attractive.

Do you like men, too?

I do.

Charming.

I was looking around, and there you were.

I thought you were very attractive.

Good. Do you require more liquor, or will this one do?

I'm not a great one for liquor.

I'm here because I want to be.

You're beautiful.

May I join you?

In which position?

My name is Leslie.

That's a beginning.

Here.

Make yourself.

Make myself comfortable.

I didn't feel at home in the bar except for you.

Bud lies.

Why don't you?

You look like a nice college girl.

They usually talk.

Coming on for the first time?

Yes.

I'm very curious.

How curious?

Light -side curious?

Sound curious?

Touch and taste curious?

Deeply intrigued?

Darling?

I bet you Doris is not going to sell you anything new.

Yeah?

No. But that's better.

Shall we bet?

I bet to lose.

I do not like certain things.

Unkept bodies.

Ridiculous, frilly things.

See my blouse?

How plain it is.

The best.

Expensive and simple.

I do not want anything to touch my breasts.

But it's not fine.

I can understand that.

And my legs?

Beautiful.

Hairless.

Everything that touches me, touches my legs, must be

smooth, well -tended.

No bruises, no marks.

Remember the boy with the leather pants?

The one with the dog?

Beautiful.

Of course, with the liberty one has in the art. Sexual liberty.

One can do almost anything with subject matter and treatment.

Life.

It's simply a matter of money rating.

And the rating system of movies.

Did you know that?

Yes.

As to whether or not a film is rated family entertainment.

What is family entertainment anyway?

Did you see that one where the little blonde got it on the rocket ship?

Orgies? Nudity?

Is analingus a family topic?

What? Analingus.

Okay. No, no, I mean... Is a subject to be treated more freely solely through

humor? Like, uh, body painting, uh, drug taking.

You know, the whole late 60s scene. The hippie bit. You take it seriously?

Of course.

But I suppose you don't.

You know, carefree, glib, spontaneous.

But I'm into a... I'm into a whole... So many things are happening to me. I'm

into a whole new important things.

Things I could never have understood or appreciated years ago.

Did you make it with your dog?

Yeah.

Show me.

I've often wondered if they aren't better equipped for true sexual

Unhabited they are.

But the necessity to verbalize, you know.

Initially, I had misgivings about her reactions to our relationship.

You know, uh...

What would happen to her mind, her dog's mind? Yeah. This close union.

I mean, it might even seem strange to her.

I mean, what would the other dog say?

How would she relate to them?

Yeah.

Because what's the point of intercourse if it's not to bring people closer and

closer together?

Yeah. Not just figuratively, but actually.

Yeah.

In something deeper, spiritual way.

Dig it. It was Tom's first trip, and he needed help over the edge.

I joined him, and we fell together into... I'm

taking you to see someone.

What do you say candy bar?

Candy bar.

What do you say M &M's? Candy bar.

What do you say? What do you say?

What do you think of you?

What do you think of you?

Oh.

You know, the trouble with this place is like what the trouble with the whole

world is.

I mean, not just money, but money.

I mean, look at all these people.

Everybody's rich.

Hell, this used to be an artist colony, right?

Now only rich artists can come here if they want to. Rich artists, rich ad men

and their corny families.

Well, what about Vietnam?

What about Mississippi?

The Lower East Side?

Does anybody care?

I mean, when are they going to learn that it's not enough to run around on a

goddamn vacation for Christ's sake?

There are people suffering.

People wearing hundreds of dollars worth of clothes.

Sloughing up booze, which isn't as good as marijuana.

And not really digging this place.

Or nature.

Or each other. I mean, you know, it's like airsoft.

Yeah, an imitation of life.

Yes, exactly.

I think if I wasn't going back to school in the fall, I'd go out and get a job

somewhere. Maybe be a migrant fruit picker or something.

Dan the Great, you're fabulous.

Okay, friends.

Look, you've caught on to some kind of freedom, real freedom.

And you're probably wondering what you can do to fight all this... This shit,

right? Yeah, plenty of it, too.

But this is a chaos full of possibilities.

And we've been training for freedom.

Freedom is a tool, a tool for exploring human behavior.

But what about the world?

What are you going to do in the fall, Tom? Going back to school?

Yeah, we'll form our own circle of friends.

There are some girlfriends I know now I always wanted to make it with. But does

it do any good?

Yes.

Is it involved?

What do you mean, is it involved? What else can you do?

It's a pretty damn good way of getting into people.

Look at you.

You're going to stand and hand out leaflets on corners or even dodge the

for the rest of your life?

I don't want to make it with anybody. I'm scared.

They're all zombies.

When I boost in the supermarket, I feel like I'm surrounded by maniacs. They

don't feel anything. They don't know anything.

Look, Tom, the more you can come, the more you come.

The more you come, the more you can come.

Look, remember this, all of you Barbara friends.

You're all love commandos.

Your duty is to go forth and to freak out the world.

That's what the world is for, to freak out in.

But there ought to be another way to project hostility than through love.

There is.

It's called karate.

I

Was

afraid to go into this before.

Our culture pushes us too much in that direction.

But I guess you can handle it now.

Barbara, Tom, Leslie, Franz.

I'm going to hitchhike to Woodstock.

Okay, we understand that.

But from this day forward, lessons and exercises in pain, real pain, not pain

for pleasure, the other kind will be added.

You will give and you will withstand pain.

Karate exercises will be kept separate from tantra exercises.

Confusion on this point could be dangerous, perhaps permanently.

Sex

education

is an attempt to destroy our American way of life.

It is designed to subvert and pervert our American youth.

In this insidious plot, God is left out.

Instead, these immoral saboteurs show man to be nothing but a low animal,

mother seem like an old sow and father seem like an old boar.

These immoral teachings must stop.

All one needs to know about sex and truth can be found in the best sex

book in the world, the Holy Bible. Nothing else is needed. It is here that

sex education begins.

Instead... These moral corruptors show lewd and arousing films of the body with

diagrams of the male and female genitalia and diabolical ways to arouse

excite the innocent.

We have learned from our parents the truth.

We must protect this valued tradition. The communists and their sex education

plot will fail.

Raise your voice against these atheists, these communists, this plot.

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of

unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military -industrial

complex.

The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will

persist.

We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or

democratic processes.

For man holds in his mortal hands

the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of

human life.

And remember me each day in your prayers.

Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.

The belief that the rights of man

Come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.

But under no circumstances must the United States ever make an agreement

on trust.

Just a couple of months while I realized that... that I realized so damn many

things.

I couldn't have gotten to know so much about... about so much if I hadn't met

Max and begun it with you all.

Some kind of philosophy.

I'm sure of it.

I just don't know what you'd call it.

And has it done you any harm, Barbara?

Any harm?

Don't forget you and Leslie.

We know a hell of a lot more than... Most kids our age are supposed to know.

And that's dangerous.

Dangerous in what way?

Dangerous to whom?

Not to anybody, Mac.

Really?

Not to ourselves either.

But damn it, we're some kind of freaks now.

I mean, it's like we were sex maniacs, and we're not.

It's just that a lot of people might think we are because we're liberated.

So I'm scared.

I mean, that trip convinced me.

Worried to hell about what I'm going to do after the summer is over and we have

to move back with all the crazies.

Man, I never thought Long Island was like that. Or New York. Or the whole

country. People are so fucking repressed.

I don't think anybody does it with anybody anymore.

They just talk about it. Or get their kicks watching somebody making it in the

movies. And so we need a couple to protect us.

Cool, adult.

Why the grin, Max?

How many kids know they need an adult couple?

That it's the best kind of cover to operate under.

Well, yeah, it's funny, but how does it solve their problem?

New York's a city full of people. Well, the city's a cover in itself.

Well, what are we arguing about?

We need somebody with a big apartment.

But cool.

Maybe with a couple of kids.

Then if we all agree that this is what our friends need, why are we sitting

here?

Why aren't we out looking for them?

You're protected.

France. Barbara.

Barbara.

In this world of illusion and confusion.

On your mind Your world is number all the time

And a lot of days you wish you never woke up In this world

of illusion and confusion And

your number beats are running on the wall You pretend you never noticed
