...guerrillas should now give up: The armed struggle has not gone on for the sake of hurting one another. It was for the sake of forcing our oppressor to accept majority rule. The most important thing is that we are getting that power we have been fighting for?to improve our constitution, improve our people, uplift them. We know that it is because of our children's sacrifice that we are in this position today, but these are the children of Zimbabwe, not Nkomo or Mugabe, and we want to welcome them back, not condemn them to go on fighting...
...figures like Colonel Herbert-must prove "actual malice." That means that a journalist consciously lied or had serious doubts about the accuracy of his report. Sullivan thus made it essential to focus on the reporter's state of mind, argued White. Apparently, he added, no journalist has ever gone to court before to complain about these questions. In fact, press lawyers point out that a journalist can often help his case by testifying that even if he got his facts wrong, he did not realize it at the time.

If convicted in Sirica's court, he would have been sentenced to jail, regardless of the psychological consequences to the country. The judge, whose penchant for stiff sentences earned him the sobriquet "Maximum John," also regrets that he had to rule against public release of the White House...
...genuine message which has come from life, and not from the scriptures only--it is from experience. There is a lot of misunderstanding and falsehood in the guru business. A lot of sickening things are happening. In that confused atmosphere, we need some fresh things. The West has gone to an extreme in technology and science, and the young people are a little bit bored of this and tired of the wars and killing. And they started thinking: what is the result of our achievement? So they now go to the other extreme: Indian philosophy. And when the right people...
