    Pablo Neruda
    “Never an illness, nor the absence
    of grandeur, no,
    nothing is able to kill the best in us,
    that kindness, dear sir, we are afflicted with:
    beautiful is the flower of man, his conduct,
    and every door opens on the beautiful truth
    and never hides treacherous whispers.

    I always gained something from making myself better,
    better than I am, better than I was,
    that most subtle citation:
    to recover some lost petal
    of the sadness I inherited:
    to search once more for the light that sings
    inside of me, the unwavering light.”
    Pablo Neruda

    Vincent Bugliosi
    “The "four angels" were the Beatles, whom Manson considered ""leaders, spokesmen, prophets," according to Gregg. The line "And he opened the bottomless pit...And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth; and unto them was given power..." was still another reference to the English group, Gregg said. Locusts - Beatles - one and the same. "Their faces were as the faces of men," yet "they had hair as the hair of women." An obvious reference to the long-haired musicians. Out of the mouths of the four angles "issued fire and brimstone." Gregg: "This referred to the spoken words, the lyrics of the Beatles' songs, the power that came out of their mouths.”
    Vincent Bugliosi, Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders
