Saturation System

Famous quotes containing the words saturation and/or system:

“In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

“... in America ... children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
