Thought this was a interesting thing to share. Yr.1959 If this was then how much more now.

You know, there is, in the country today, so many dissatisfied people. And it's amazing, when you get around and find so much dissatisfaction. People
hardly know what they want to do. They come down the road at about seventy and eighty miles an hour, in a thirty zone; slide the brakes and turn around the corner, and start up with such speed till they'll burn their tires half off, to go a city block, to set and talk a while. Seems like people don't know what they do want.
Some of them get so disturbed until they go down to the drugstore and purchase for themselves a bottle of arsenic, a sulfuric acid or something, and committ suicide. They find them laying dead. Some will turn their gas jets on in the room, or set in their automobiles with a pipe for the carbon monoxide gas, trying to get away from life. Some of them will climb up to the bridge, and write a little note and stick it on their coat, and lay it down, and plunge themselves to death in the river; jumping off high mountains, high towers. And some will take their pistol and put it up to their head, and actually blow their brains out. They're just dissatisfied.
The hospitals are full of dissatisfied people. The insane institutions are overrun. Dissatisfied! They dont know know what they do want. There seem to be something that they're reaching after, but they just never come to it.
And also we find that, homes, which is the backbone of the nation and of the church, we find homes broke up, and divorce courts just overrun with divorces. Juvenile delinquency, of mothers leaving their little children with babysitters and taking off, out to work and somewhere, when their husbands got good jobs, but they're just not satisfied to be a mother and stay at home. They want to dress like men. Men wants to be like women. And they just...There just seems to be something wrong, somewhere. And people are reaching fo something, and can't find it. That's a pitiful condition to be into.
They've looked everywhere, to find something, to make themself an example. We take the women of our day, they'll watch television until they see a certain movie star. Or, she'll come out, dressed in a certain way, and all the women will want to dress like her, or act like her, make her example that they should go by. And finally they find themselves wound up in a cage of sin that they can't get out of. What a pity! Seeing them come into the meeting, tears running down their cheeks, but they're hunting for something.
We take men. Men, you catch them on the stree or in their business. The ols man wants to be a teenager. He'll cut his hair off, on a flat-top, and make a ducktail in the back. He wants to be a teenager. The teenager wants to be like one of these rock-and-roll king. Where do they wind up? In sin and disgrace.
Man seems to be unsatisfied. He's running everywhere. The'll take on, listen to the radio, for jokes and things that things these jokesters pull. And the'll go out and try to mimic or avr like those people. You take a little boy on the street. How i know it! And he's got to be Paladin, or Hopalong Cassidy. Or... And the the commercial world get a hold of that and makes millions of dollars out of it. They got to be a Roy Rogers, or a Mr. Dillon, or some telivision program outfit.
They are trying to impersonate that person. They set them up as an example. They've taken them for their standard of life. And what do they find at the end of the road? Those little fellows turn out to be gangsters and robbers. The women turn out to be prostitutes, and street-walking, and delinquent people. Men turn out to be gamblers, and, "Lovers of themselves more than lovers of God". Churches try to impresonate the other church, the big church.
We just seem to see, theres no satisfaction among the people. What do they...
What makes the do it? It's for a cause. It's a nature. God gave them that nature. They've got a nature that makes them want to have something to identify with. They must have something that they want to be like, an objective in life."
