Famous quotes containing the words official and/or monster:

“All official institutions of language are repeating machines: school, sports, advertising, popular songs, news, all continually repeat the same structure, the same meaning, often the same words: the stereotype is a political fact, the major figure of ideology.”

“By heaven, he echoes me,
As if there were some monster in his thought
Too hideous to be shown.”
