"As societies grow decadent, the language grows decadent, too. Words are used to disguise, not to illuminate, action: you liberate a city by destroying it. Words are to confuse, so that at election time people will solemnly vote against their own interests."
"... there is nothing more debasing than the work of those who do well what is not worth doing at all."
(Gore Vidal)
