“Coolness was never conservative.”

Saturday - 06Apr2019 Filed in: Quotes & Thinkums&Morality & Modern Life

❝❝Coolness was never conservative.

It grew out of the jazz age and into the Las Vegas and West Coast aesthetic personified by Hefner, Sinatra, and Bruce. It was always about pushing the envelope with just a touch of rebellion. It was always about the show over substance and the deeds better left unmentioned.❞❞
