More From Noam Chomsky
- "The intellectual tradition is one of servility to power, and if I didn’t betray it I’d be ashamed of myself."
- "In the literal sense, there has been no relevant evolution since the trek from Africa. But there has been substantial progress towards higher standards of rights, justice and freedom – along with all too many illustrations of how remote is the goal of a decent society."
- "I am opposed to the accumulation of executive power anywhere."
