If you take away ideology, you are left with a case by case ethics which in practice ends up as me first, me only, and in rampant greed. – Richard A. Nelson

There are no more ideologies in the authentic sense of false consciousness, only advertisements for the world through its duplication and the provocative lie which does not seek belief but commands silence. – Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno

Everything ideological possesses meaning: it represents, depicts, or stands for something lying outside itself. In other words, it is a sign. Without signs there is no ideology. – V. N. Volosinov
