Greg’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Last Dangerous Visions (The Dangerous Visions #3)

The Last Dangerous Visions (The Dangerous Visions #3) by Harlan Ellison

1 note & 1 highlight

The first generation of ads, billboards, TV and radio spots was simple enough: “Let’s Make America Strong Again.”

I wonder how long ago Dan wrote and submitted the story to Harlan Ellison (sometime between 1982 and 1990 i'm sure) and I wonder if he had any idea how close this resembles the fascist slogan of Donald Trump? Make America Great Again or MAGA… interesting

Greg’s Quotes

“We love America just as much as they do. But in a different way. You see, they love America like a 4-year-old loves his mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a 4-year-old, everything Mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad. Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad and helping your loved one grow.”
― Al Franken, Lies & the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair & Balanced Look at the Right
