"I am a redneck myself, born & bred on a submarginal farm in Appalachia,
descended from an endless line of dark-complected, lug-eared,
beetle-browed, insolent barbarian peasants, a line reaching back to the
dark forests of central Europe & the alpine caves of my Neanderthal
primogenitors."
from "In defense of the Redneck", Abbey's Road
