quotable
. . . Having, like Childe Roland, passed through those dark towers myself, I immediately recognized the insidious handiwork of the technicians of "tolerance"—who, to the rural and impoverished students I taught, would remain in cloud-capped obscurity, like dark and malefic gods engineering the fates of peasants and professors alike. These students would, in all likelihood, go on to work as mechanics and supermarket clerks, having never heard of Marx, Freud, or Derrida, or of any of the "-isms" that, like arch-demons, inhabit and move the bodies of nations; but their minds, nonetheless, will have been twisted and fixed, unconscious of the hands that turned the screws. . . .
