Rock music

• "In fact rock, rather than being an example of how freedom can be achieved within the capitalist structure, is an example of how capitalism can, almost without conscious effort, deceive those whom it oppresses.... So effective has the rock industry been in encouraging the spirit of optimistic youth take-over that rock's truly hard political edge, its constant exploration of the varieties of youthful frustration, has been ignored and softened."
  • Michael Lydon, quoted in The Sociology of Rock by Simon Frith, 1978, ISBN 0094602204

• "Rock 'n roll don't come from your brain. It comes from your crotch."
  • Daniel from Freaks and Geeks
