Quotes

Entertainment conveys thought and emotions and is enjoyed especially,when you are relaxed. You can be indoctrinated, for under relaxed,conditions you are most vulnerable. This is why you hear of censorship,today because of the widespread use of themes such as homosexuality and,violence. These can be poisonous. When the people from across the seas,penetrate a country they strike first at the labor unions and second at,the arts. This should not be taken lightly. Some people never grow,beyond the Zorro state and can be open to these influences. The,question to keep in mind is: how are we being entertained?.
