Virtual Sit

Famous quotes containing the words virtual and/or sit:

    Neither dead nor alive, the hostage is suspended by an incalculable outcome. It is not his destiny that awaits for him, nor his own death, but anonymous chance, which can only seem to him something absolutely arbitrary.... He is in a state of radical emergency, of virtual extermination.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Taking into consideration all your loveliness
    why can’t you burn your bootsoles and your
    draft card? How can you sit there saying yes
    to war?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
