Famous quotes containing the words multiple, window and/or mode:
“... 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)
“The mind too closes as it were. As the window might close of a dark empty room.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“Sight is the least sensual of all the senses. And we strain ourselves to see, see, see—everything, everything through the eye, in one mode of objective curiosity.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
