In this week's New York Observer, Tom Scocca reports on yesterday's 'State of The Times' New York Times management pep rally at the Disney Theater, in which publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. "sans necktie, in a navy suit and blue shirt delivered a cheerful (if not sunshiny) account of the company s condition."

What struck us was Pinch's reliance on exciting management buzzwords. It reminded us of the go-go 90s, when we were flush with stock options and dizzy from Red Herring-colored Kool Aid.

Wait, maybe it reminded us of a different red time: Paris, May '68 when we were really young and idealistic. We were gonna change the world!

In fact, see if you can figure out which slogans are Sulzberger's and which were scrawled on the walls around Paris 37 years ago:

1) Find the third way.

2) Those who make revolutions half-way only dig their own graves.

3) Be realistic, ask for the impossible.

4) Manage the tension between authenticity and innovation.

5) Content remains the driver.

6) No replastering, the structure is rotten.

Answers after the jump.

1, 4, 5: Sulzberger
