Mental Phenomenon

Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or phenomenon:

“Here in the U.S., culture is not that delicious panacea which we Europeans consume in a sacramental mental space and which has its own special columns in the newspapers—and in people’s minds. Culture is space, speed, cinema, technology. This culture is authentic, if anything can be said to be authentic.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“This phenomenon is more exhilarating to me than the luxuriance and fertility of vineyards.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
