Elliot answered...
Oh im sorry i can't. I remember it because it struck me and helped me sort
out what exactly the line between intellect and society was and where it
began (i was unsure at the time so the answer stuck to me). If i come
across it again i'd be glad to point it out to you.

Yea, right. Here's a little incentive for you, Elliot. If you should ever
find this quote in Lila I shall eat my copy of it, which the hardback
edition. Good luck.
