"In certain kinds of writing, particularly in art criticism and literary criticism, it is normal to come across long passages which are almost completely lacking in meaning."
- George Orwell
All writers, after encountering such passages and trying to understand them, uncovering their flaws, raging against the stupidity, and then coming to some final place of piece--if such a place exists--should consider the critic behind the criticism. It helps when creating believable characters who are idiots, fools, and buffoons.
