Summary

This quote suggests that the characters or individuals involved in a theater setting are constantly engaged in conversation. Their need to speak stems not from being heard or understood, but rather from the act of speaking itself.

Modern cosmetic surgeons have a direct financial interest in a social role for women that requires them to feel ugly. They do not simply advertise for a share of a market that already exists: Their advertisements create new markets. It is a boom industry because it is influentially placed to create its own demand through the pairing of text with ads in women's magazines.
