Profane Space

Famous quotes containing the words profane and/or space:

“Both magic and religion are based strictly on mythological tradition, and they also both exist in the atmosphere of the miraculous, in a constant revelation of their wonder-working power. They both are surrounded by taboos and observances which mark off their acts from those of the profane world.”
—Bronislaw Malinowski (1884–1942)

“It is not through space that I must seek my dignity, but through the management of my thought. I shall have no more if I possess worlds.”
