Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:
“There is no philosophy without the art of ignoring objections.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
“If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominator—the commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)
