Quote #3 on Ecological Struggle Quotes >> Nature and Humanity
“It may also be the case that some people have become so accustomed to a carbon-monoxide polluted atmosphere as to sicken at the breath of fresh country air. And it is far from being unlikely that the postwar period has produced groups of people so habituated to uninterrupted radio noise -- their own or anybody's radio -- that it would unnerve them to remain long in quiet surroundings.”
