Ceases

Famous quotes containing the word ceases:

    All that a critic, as critic, can give poets is the deadly encouragement that never ceases to remind them of how heavy their inheritance is.
    Harold Bloom (b. 1930)

    A matter that becomes clear ceases to concern us.—What was that god thinking who counseled, “Know thyself!” Did he perhaps mean, “Cease to concern yourself! Become objective!”—And Socrates?—And “scientific men”?
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Knowledge is and will be produced in order to be sold, it is and will be consumed in order to be valorized in a new production: in both cases, the goal is exchange. Knowledge ceases to be an end in itself, it loses its Use-value.
    Jean François Lyotard (b. 1924)
