Ceremonial Start

Famous quotes containing the words ceremonial and/or start:

    The greatest honor that can be paid to the work of art, on its pedestal of ritual display, is to describe it with sensory completeness. We need a science of description.... Criticism is ceremonial revivification.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    If everything is perfect, language is useless. This is true for animals. If animals don’t speak, it’s because everything’s perfect for them. If one day they start to speak, it will be because the world has lost a certain sort of perfection.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
