Quote of the Day

Thanks to Freud, it has been joked, when a person thinks a thing, the thing he thinks is not the thing he thinks he thinks but only the thing he thinks he thinks he thinks. Fair enough. And thanks to Marx, when a social class thinks a thing, the thing it thinks is not the thing it thinks it thinks but is instead a "false consciousness," in a word, ideology.

- Robert Nisbet
