This Is The Pure Form Of Servitude:

The Functional Language Is A Radically Anti-historical Language: Operational Rationality Has Little Room And Little Use For Historical Reason.

The People Recognize Themselves In Their Commodities; They Find Their Soul In Their Automobile, Hi-fi Set, Split-level Home, Kitchen Equipment.

That Which Is Cannot Be True.

The Truth Of Literature And Art Has Always Been Granted (if It Was Granted At All) As One Of A "higher" Order, Which Should Not And Indeed Did Not Disturb The Order Of Business. What Has Changed In The Contemporary Period Is The Difference Between The Two Orders And Their Truths. The Absorbent Power Of Society Depletes The Artistic Dimension By Assimilating Its Antagonistic Contents. In The Realm Of Culture, The New Totalitarianism Manifests Itself Precisely In A Harmonizing Pluralism, Where The Most Contradictory Works And Truths Peacefully Coexist In Indifference.

The Truth Of Art Lies In Its Power To Break The Monopoly Of Established Reality To Define What Is Real.
