“People dislike one thing and want to express solidarity with another, but they are not interested in the detail of what they are saying. You can shirk it by simply throwing your mind open and letting the ready-made phrases come crowding in. They will construct your sentences for you, even think your thoughts for you to a certain extent and at need they will perform the important service of partially concealing your meaning even from yourself. It is at this point that the special connection between politics and debasement of language becomes clear”.
George Orwell, “Politics and the English language”

“…all my friends were in the negative, nightmare position of putting down society and giving their tired bookish or political or psychoanalytical reasons, but Dean just raced in society, eager for bread and love, he didn’t care one way or the other […] ‘so long we can eat, son, y’ear me? I’m hungry, I’m starving, let’s eat right now!’ — and off we’d rush to eat, whereof, as said Ecclesiastes, ‘It is your portion under the sun’. “
