—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“The 1990s, after the reign of terror of academic vandalism, will be a decade of restoration: restoration of meaning, value, beauty, pleasure, and emotion to art and restoration of art to its audience.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“An academic dialect is perfected when its terms are hard to understand and refer only to one another.”
