Summary

This quote represents a shift in perspective about one's relationship with their body. The person expresses a previous belief of viewing their body as a subordinate entity meant to serve their desires and needs.

It reflects how the individual's perception has evolved to understand that their body has its own autonomy and power, leading to a reevaluation of their role as its caretaker.

A school is a hopper into which children are heaved while they are still young and tender; therein they are pressed into certain standard shapes and covered from head to heels with official rubber-stamps.
