“They feed back exactly what is given them. Because they do not believe in words – words are for “typeheads,” Chester Anderson tells them, and a thought which needs words is just one more of those ego trips – their only proficient vocabulary is in the society’s platitudes… They are sixteen, fifteen, fourteen years old, younger all the time, an army of children waiting to be given the words.”

— Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem
