If you take
away ideology, you are left with a case by case ethics which
in practice ends up as me first, me only, and in rampant
greed.
-- Richard A. Nelson
Art and
ideology often interact on each other; but the plain fact is
that both spring from a common source. Both draw on human
experience to explain mankind to itself; both attempt, in
very different ways, to assemble coherence from seemingly
unrelated phenomena; both stand guard for us against chaos.
-- Kenneth Tynan
1927-1980, British Critic
Everything
ideological possesses meaning: it represents, depicts, or
stands for something lying outside itself. In other words,
it is a sign. Without signs there is no ideology.
-- V. N. Volosinov
Now different
races and nationalities cherish different ideals of society
that stink in each other's nostrils with an offensiveness
beyond the power of any but the most monstrous private deed.
-- Rebecca West
1892-1983, British Author
