#off

I really am opinionated, but not for long. I have found myself coming off of what I think of something because the guy I'm talking to makes better sense than I am. I have so many points of view, I can't keep track of 'em, because I talk to too many people... I'm not so opinionated that I won't budge. ↗

You do that and you're gonna have problems. ↗

Men haven't changed their behaviour, so women somehow have to be strengthened to be able to ward off the men. ↗

We say that someone occupies an official position, whereas it is the official position that occupies him. ↗

You know, as you compose music, you're just off in your own world. You have no idea where reality is, so to have an idea of what people think is pretty hard. ↗

In capitalist history, invasion and class struggle are not opposites, as the official legend would have us believe, but one is the means and the expression of the other. ↗
