I
think of myself as an Okie. Let me tell you what that means:
Being an Okie means being the first of your whole family to finish
high school let alone go on to college. Being an Okie means getting
rooted out of an area and having to hustle for a toehold in some
new area. Being an Okie means running the risk of striving out
from under a layer of heartless sonsabitches only to discover
you have become a redneck of bitterness worse than those you
strove against..." Ken Kesey,
author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Sometimes a Great
Notion.
