Abbot Howard "Abbie" Hoffman foi um ativista social e político norte-americano, anarquista e auto-proclamado revolucionário, co-fundador do Partido Internacional da Juventude .

Ele foi preso e julgado por conspiração e incitar a revolta como resultado de sua função em protestos que levaram a violentos confrontos com a polícia durante a Convenção Nacional Democrata de 1968, juntamente com Jerry Rubin, David Dellinger, Tom Hayden, Rennie Davis, John Froines, Lee Weiner, e Bobby Seale. O grupo ficou conhecido coletivamente como "Oito de Chicago"; quando a acusação de Seale foi separada da dos outros, se tornaram conhecidos como os Sete de Chicago. Enquanto os réus foram inicialmente condenados por intenção de incitar um motim, as sentenças foram anuladas por recurso.

Hoffman continuou sua militância na década de 1970, e continua a ser um ícone do movimento anti-guerra e da era da contracultura. Wikipedia

Abbie Hoffman: Frases em inglês

“A modern revolutionary group heads for the television station, not the factory. It concentrates its energy on infiltrating and changing the image system.”

“It's universally wrong to steal from your neighbor, but once you get beyond the-one-to-one level and pit the individual against the multinational conglomerate, the federal bureaucracy, the modern plantation of agro-buinsess, or the utility company, it becomes strictly a value judgement to decide exactly who is stealing from whom. One person's crime is another person's profit. Capitalism is license to steal; the government simply regulates who steals an how much. I always wanted to put together an outlaw handbook that would help raise consciousness on these points while doing something about evening the score. There was also the challenge of testing the limits of free speech.”

“Sacred cows make the tastiest hamburger.”

Abbie Hoffman

This has been attributed to Hoffman by referencing The New York Times (20 April 1989), but that article (Section A, Page 16) actually says "But the Rabbi also quoted one of Mr. Hoffman's favorite sayings: 'Sacred cows make the tastiest hamburger.'" This statement doesn't attribute the saying to Hoffman, but only says it was a favorite and presumably he used it repeatedly.
An earlier version is "Sacred cows make great hamburgers", recorded as an anonymous saying in Encyclopedia of Graffiti (1974) by Robert George Reisner and Lorraine Wechsler.
There are earlier instances of essentially this quote. In the form "Sacred cows make the best hamburger" it appeared in October 1965 in a student newspaper at Pennsylvania State University, The Daily Collegian, saying it was borrowed from Aardvark magazine, according to the Quote Investigator blog https://quoteinvestigator.com/2016/12/12/cows/.

“You ask, "What about the innocent bystanders?" But we are in a time of revolution. If you are a bystander, you are not innocent.”

“Some day we too will fly off in some communal capsule, Blacks, Puerto Ricans, Hippies, liberated women, young workers on the line, and G. I.'s sitting in stockades because they don't want to go to Vietnam. There will be a whole mess of us laughing and getting stoned on our way to OUTERSPACE, and the first thing we're gonna do out there is to rip down that fuckin flag on the moon.”

Tikkun (July-August 1989).

“Every group was broke cause the liberal bulge that used to support most radical causes was off on some other trip, playing around with anti-ABM campaigns and sending food to Biafra. Even though they wept and shed some blood in the streets of Chicago, they were gone for good - gone with their money. Our revolution was becoming too radical or crazy or violent or young. We were fuckin up their cocktail parties and it mattered not the blood we were shedding or the growing fascism in the country. New ways had to be found to get bread cause the days of the mailings and benefits were over. In fact, for the Yippies, they had never even begun.”

The Great Rip Off
Woodstock Nation (1969)

“For a revolution, in order to be a true revolution, must be a world revolution. To achieve that world revolution, you the children of the Yankees must lend a hand. You must vomit forth your cynicism in the streets of your cities. You must mount an unrelenting attack on everything the bastards that rule your country hold dear. You must refuse to serve in their armies, you must reject the heroin offered in their universities, you must become clogs in their productive machines.”

“Your universities teach you to be eternal cynics, a cynicism that can be only drowned in alcohol and diet pills and psychoanalysts and golf. Forget your cynicism. There is not one who has more respect for life than a revolutionist.”
