Lane Concrete

Famous quotes containing the words lane and/or concrete:

    Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    Total loyalty is possible only when fidelity is emptied of all concrete content, from which changes of mind might naturally arise.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
