“If you take someone’s thoughts and feelings away, bit by bit, consistently, then they have nothing left, except some gritty, gnawing, shitty little instinct, down there, somewhere, worming round the gut, but so far down, so hidden, it’s impossible to find. Imagine, if you will, a worldwide conspiracy to deny the existence of the color yellow. And whenever you see yellow, they told you, no, that isn’t yellow, what the fuck’s yellow? Eventually, whenever you saw yellow, they would say: that isn’t yellow, course it isn’t, blue or green or purple, or… You’d say it, yes it is, it’s yellow, and become increasing hysterical, and then go berserk.”
