Historical Time

Famous quotes containing the words historical and/or time:

“Religion means goal and way, politics implies end and means. The political end is recognizable by the fact that it may be attained—in success—and its attainment is historically recorded. The religious goal remains, even in man’s highest experiences, that which simply provides direction on the mortal way; it never enters into historical consummation.”
—Martin Buber (1878–1965)

“Tony Camonte: Hey, what’s all the time bitin’ you? You afraid of me?
Poppy: Well, that outfit is enough to give anybody the yips.”
—Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
