Potential Replacement

Famous quotes containing the words potential and/or replacement:

    The real community of man ... is the community of those who seek the truth, of the potential knowers.
    Allan Bloom (1930–1992)

    Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
