Almost everywhere the students were taking up theories and dogmas whose relation to the society around them was archeological and nothing more. The students were, almost everywhere, militantly anti-intellectual; yet they had outfitted themselves with a worldview that existed nowhere but in books. They were energetic; and blind. They aimed for the future and had hit the nineteenth century, and nothing was left to guide them except the cult of the will, which sent them careening from sensible reformism to lunatic ultra-radicalism, from thrilling idealism to thrilling cynicism. In the end, bizarre unpredictability became the signature of the New Left's most prominent personalities.
