Famous quotes containing the words realm of and/or realm:
“Most men are like me. They cannot live in a universe where the most bizarre thought can in one second enter into the realm of realitywhere, most often, it does enter, like a knife in a heart.”
—Albert Camus (19131960)
“The fate of our times is characterized by rationalization and intellectualization and, above all, by the disenchantment of the world. Precisely the ultimate and most sublime values have retreated from public life either into the transcendental realm of mystic life or into the brotherliness of direct and personal human relations. It is not accidental that our greatest art is intimate and not monumental.”
—Max Weber (18641920)
