You'll be a baby again — a bald, redfaced little animal, and then you'll go through it all again. There'll be millions of others like you — all with their mouths open, squalling for food. And the when you get a little older you'll begin to learn things — and you'll learn all the wrong things and learn them all in the wrong way. You'll eat the wrong food and wear the wrong clothes, and you'll live in swarming dens where there's no light and no air! You'll learn to be a liar and a bully and a braggart and a coward and a sneak. You'll learn to fear the sunlight and to hate beauty. By that time you'll be ready for school. There they'll tell you the truth about a great many things that you don't give a damn about, and they'll tell you lies about all the things you ought to know — and about all the things you want to know they'll tell you nothing at all. When you get through you'll be equiped for your life work. You'll be ready to take a job.Elmer Rice, The Adding Machine, Scene VIII (1923)John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band, Working Class Hero (1970)... e de cada vez que oiço um, penso no outro.

é urgente uma rebelião contra o status quoi e tem de ser na rua de dentro para fora e n nas salas de teatro ou cinema a realidade elevada(?)a ficção
