Victor Vanquished
Victor and vanquished
Have
No ideology
No commitment
No conviction
No future.

If the victor had the gods on his side, the vanquished had Cato.
Victor and vanquished never unite in substantial agreement.
Science has produced such powerful weapons that in a war between great powers there would be neither victor nor vanquished. Both would be overwhelmed in destruction.

If one seeks to analyze experiences and reactions to the first postwar years, I hope one may say without being accused of bias that it is easier for the victor than for the vanquished to advocate peace.

Victor Should Have Been A Jazz Musician
I went to a concert, to see nina, simone,
The concert was over, there was still a band playing, the rap up,
The booguh played with his hands, I close my eyes, and look at him,
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
I said to myself, victor should have been a jazz musician,
I looked at his face, and I saw victor, looked at his smile, and I saw victor,
I looked at his hair, and thought,
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
And the people dancing on the floor, dancing on the floor, were so high,
You should have seen victor smile, you should have seen victor smile,
As they danced all the while all around on the floor, and he laughed,
Victor should have been a jazz musician,
Oh, victor should have been a jazz musician,
He was playing so nice, the jazz musician,
Ah, ah,
Hes living in a fast beat, in a city thats hot,
Telling all the latinos and puerto ricans, victor seems happy, but he doesnt even know himself, hes gotta look inside to know his first love,
Victor was a jazz musician, he was playing so nice, victor was a jazz musician, (? ) victor was a jazz musician,
Victor loves his music, he loves his music, somewhere, he plays his music, somewhere,
Victor is a jazz musician,
Jazz.

Justice has nothing to do with victor nations and vanquished nations, but must be a moral standard that all the world's peoples can agree to. To seek this and to achieve it - that is true civilization.

For the victor peace means the preservation of the position of power which he has secured. For the vanquished it means resigning himself to the position left to him.

You control your future, your destiny. What you think about comes about. By recording your dreams and goals on paper, you set in motion the process of becoming the person you most want to be. Put your future in good hands - your own.

Pup Dig
One does not expand
Their own ideology
Through vast, new branches
Of information, but through
The variation
Yielded by experience.
We find our future
By knowing the past enough
To rearrange it. Evolve.

Right And Wrong
(words and music by Joe Jackson)
Stop everything
I think I hear the President
The pied piper of the TV screen
Is gonna make it simple
And he's got it all mapped out
And illustrated with cartoons
Too hard for clever folks to understand
Yeah, they're more used to words like:
Ideology...
But they say it's not the issue
Ideology...
They're not talkin' 'bout right or left
They're talkin' 'bout...
Chorus:
Right and wrong - do you know the difference
Right and wrong - do you know the difference
'Tween the right and the left and the East and the West
What you know and the things that you'll never see
So what ya think
You like the Yankees or the Mets this year
And what about this latest war of words
And what about the Commies
You know, I saw the news last night
All illustrated with cartoons
So when they come with that opinion poll
Yeah, they better not use words like:
Ideology...
Or try to tell me 'bout the issues
Ideology...
Whose side are you on
'Cause we're talkin' 'bout...
Chorus
Where are we?
Chorus

Human Judges On The Suffering Of Others
we read the same books
of the law both civil and
criminal: you end on an
acquittal and i end on a
conviction of a conviction.
we are but human judges
on the suffering of others.
