Gore Vidal: Eating Greedy Altruism

Posted by admin on Thursday, October 3, 2019

Gore Vidal Money Quote saying being greedy is somehow altruistic as we seem to prize our ability to be conforming consumers. Gore Vidal said:
 

 

“Apparently, a concern for others is self-love at its least attractive, while greed is now a sign of the highest altruism. But then to reverse, periodically, the meanings of words is a very small price to pay for our vast freedom not only to conform but to consume” — Gore Vidal
