“Organize and organize and super organize super­super sports. More cartoons in books. More pictures. The mind drinks less and less...With school turning out more runners, jumpers, racers, tinkerers, grabbers snatchers, fliers, and swimmers instead of examiners, critics, knowers, and imaginative creators, the word 'intellectual,' of course, became the swear word it deserved to be” (54).
