Five senses; an incurably abstract intellect; a haphazardly selective memory; a set of preconceptions and assumptions so numerous that I can never examine more than a minority of them - never become even conscious of them all.

Next Quote

But it is much later in the game now, and ignorance of the score is inexcusable.

— Neil Postman
