“Ci siamo mai chiesti quali cambiamenti si determinarono nel nostro cervello quando la gente cominciò a leggere invece di ascoltare?”
― Il senso della memoria: Saggi e racconto
― Il senso della memoria: Saggi e racconto
“una generazione di giovani, magari con quindici o vent'anni di studio alle spalle, coperti di premi e di lodi, che però non hanno letto niente, non vanno oltre i loro curriculum scolastici o universitari, che sono ignoranti e per giunta privi di curiosità. Un'ora in loro compagnia mette in crisi qualunque vostro concetto di istruzione... Con loro è impossibile avere una vera conversazione, perché parlano solo di se stessi, dei loro amici, dei personaggi famosi, di shopping, di ricette. Vivono in piccoli mondi ristretti e impenetrabili.”
