...French Connection doesn't neglect to mention the real losers in this world without good guys: the ones who suffer in the poverty of New York's black-Latin neighborhoods, suffer a little less when they can afford to buy a high-priced fix of the businessmen's mass-marketed wares, and suffer a lot more when the narcotics detectives descend on them on their way to making the big bust, beating them for whatever information they can supply and sending them up for possession of controlled drugs...
...What is Pinocchio? Pinocchio is our life. We are like a puppet. In a certain moment we finish our primitive life and we have consciousness. We have broken the strings. We think we are then free, but we are still machines, not humans. We must go to life and suffer in search for human life.

Weeklies would be hit harder than monthlies because of greater mailing frequency, and large-circulation weeklies would be hit harder still because of their great volume.

...home, Oh Lord what will I do?" speak not so much to an omnipotent deity, but simply confirm everyman's need for a resting place, a safe haven and a friend. Rural life has always been hard and mountain people have never felt the need to suffer it entirely alone. The 5-string banjo, fiddle and dulcimer occupied places of honor in countless cabins, and the Saturday night square dance was a regular occurrence on practically every creek. Any people accustomed to long, hard hours spent just in the business of existing learn quickly to catch any available moment...
