"Far from Abolishing Itself When Its Necessarily Limited Aims are Met, an Emancipatory Movement Acquires the Permanence of a Religion, and Excommunication Awaits Those Who Fail to Adhere to Its Dogmas"

"The paradox of emancipation for the left is that the more victories it wins the less relevant it becomes. In theory, it should bank the victories and move on to the serious business it said it always wanted to concentrate on once it had swept aside irrational prejudices. In practice, it unwittingly shows that prejudice can flourish as easily on the left as the right."
