Famous quotes containing the word belongs:
“All cultural change reduces itself to a difference of categories. All revolutions, whether in the sciences or world history, occur merely because spirit has changed its categories in order to understand and examine what belongs to it, in order to possess and grasp itself in a truer, deeper, more intimate and unified manner.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“Frigidity is desire imagined by a woman who doesn’t desire the man offering himself to her. It’s the desire of a woman for a man who hasn’t yet come to her, whom she doesn’t yet know. She’s faithful to this stranger even before she belongs to him. Frigidity is the non-desire for whatever is not him.”
—Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)
“Peg: Who are you?
Alice: I’m nobody.
Peg: Oh now, don’t sulk. We’re all nobody. “Nobody” is anybody who belongs to somebody. So if you belong to nobody, you’re somebody. Understand?”
—Abraham Polonsky (b. 1910)
