Happy Valentine's Day-- Is Repression the Issue?

The personal is political. Love is the answer. Give peace a chance. I have a dream....

"The violence and evil of our time have been, when viewed collectively, the work of loveless men; impotent men who lust after sadistic power to conceal their failure as lovers; repressed and frustrated men, lamed by unloving parents and seeking revenge by taking refuge in a system of thought or a mode of life into which love cannot intrude.... Those who are impotent to love, from Hitler downward, must seek a negative counterpart in hatred and disintegration."

--Lewis Mumford
