Saul Bellow Quotes

The Enemy Is Noise. By Noise I Mean Not Simply The Noise Of Technology, The Noise Of Money Or Advertising And Promotion, The Noise Of The Media, The Noise Of Miseducation, But The Terrible Excitement And Distraction Generated By The Crises Of Modern Life. Mind, I Don't Say That Philistinism Is Gone. It Is Not. It Has Found Many Disguises, Some Highly Artistic And Peculiarly Insidious. But The Noise Of Life Is The Great Threat. Contributing To It Are Real And Unreal Issues, Ideologies, Rationalizations, Errors, Delusions, Nonsituations That Look Real, Nonquestions Demanding Consideration, Opinions, Analyses In The Press, On The Air, Expertise, Inside Dope, Factional Disagreement, Official Rhetoric, Information - In Short, The Sounds Of The Public Sphere, The Din Of Politics, The Turbulence And Agitation That Set In About 1914 And Have Now Reached An Intolerable Volume.
