North Line

Famous quotes containing the words north and/or line:

    “Exporting Church employees to Latin America masks a universal and unconscious fear of a new Church. North and South American authorities, differently motivated but equally fearful, become accomplices in maintaining a clerical and irrelevant Church. Sacralizing employees and property, this Church becomes progressively more blind to the possibilities of sacralizing person and community.”
    —Ivan Illich (b. 1926)

    “Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century.”
    —Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
