Tacit Awareness

Famous quotes containing the words tacit and/or awareness:

    Money doesn’t mind if we say it’s evil, it goes from strength to strength. It’s a fiction, an addiction, and a tacit conspiracy.
    Martin Amis (b. 1949)

    So that the reverence and the gaiety
    May not be forgotten in later experience,
    In the bored habituation, the fatigue, the tedium,
    The awareness of death, the consciousness of failure,
    Or in the piety of the convert
    Which may be tainted with a self-conceit....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
