“Tillvaron har alltid haft sina prussiluskor, men när tillvaron var småskalig behövde vi bara stå ut med prussiluskorna i vår egen socken. Det fanns något slags maktbalans. Men så blev den alldeles vanliga byn en global by och prussiluskorna blev världsomspännande. Var och en av dem fick medlen att läxa upp hela världen.”

There have always been moral scolds in the world, but when life was smaller in scale, we only had to put up with the self-appointed guardians of decency in our own parish. There was a kind of balance of power. But then the ordinary village became a global one, and the busybodies went global too. Each and every suddenly had the means to lecture the whole world.
