A Quote by Robert J. Lifton

PageQuoteDateSource
Cult“The language of the totalist environment is characterized by the thought-terminating cliché. The most far-reaching and complex of human problems are compressed into brief, highly selective, definitive-sounding phrases, easily memorized and easily expressed. They become the start and finish of any ideological analysis.”1961Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism
