“Personally I’ve never met any intellectuals…On the other hand, I’ve met a lot of people who talk about ‘the intellectual.’...I’ve got some idea of what such an animal could be. ...He’s guilty about pretty well everything: about speaking out and about keeping silent, about doing nothing and about getting involved in everything…In short, the intellectual is raw material for a verdict, a sentence, a condemnation, an exclusion...”
- Michel Foucault
