Famous quotes containing the words multiple and/or threads:
“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
“‘Tis sweet to feel by what fine-spun threads our affections are drawn together.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
