"...pesquisa destinada a estudar os linchamentos por acusação de feitiçaria, em zona rural ou semi-rural. Na grelha das técnicas de pesquisa que estamos a usar, figura a colocação de duas perguntas feitas a alunos de escolas primárias, a saber: (1) o que se deve fazer a um ladrão?; (2) o que se deve fazer a um feiticeiro? O trabalho foi iniciado no distrito de Inhassunge, província da Zambézia."[F]

"It is no longer possible to have an original opinion on Radiohead.You've absorbed the deified albums, quarreled over the rock critic pontifications, frowned at the guarded, combative interviews. Thom Yorke's ugly-stick-beaten mug has peered at you from the pages of every magazine known to man; his every word and every note has ignited its own individual Internet flame war. Mass media has bombarded us with Radiohead critique, rendering us unable to generate an unfiltered opinion of our own. When you listen to Radiohead, you're no longer actually listening to Radiohead -- you're listening to everyone's opinion about Radiohead. It's impossible to separate what you hear from what you've read. You are betrayed by what you know, and you know way too much. Thus, in order to solicit an honest, undiluted opinion about Radiohead, you'd have to find the proverbial People Living Under Rocks. As People Living Under Rocks are unavailable, let's use fifth graders(...)
We will play a career-spanning selection of Radiohead songs; the kids, equipped with Sharpies and blank sheets of paper, will simply draw whatever the music suggests to them. We don't even give them the name of the band. They don't know anything about Radiohead, the mountain of criticism, the mythology. Their thoughts and interpretations are pure, unsullied, literally unique"(F)
