Famous quotes containing the words local and/or deity:
“The local is a shabby thing. There’s nothing worse than bringing us back down to our own little corner, our own territory, the radiant promiscuity of the face to face. A culture which has taken the risk of the universal, must perish by the universal.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Whenever the deity contrives misfortunes for a man, he first harms their understanding.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
