Famous quotes containing the word mission:

    “It is the mission of the twentieth century to elucidate the irrational.”
    —Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907–1961)

    “Perhaps the mission of those who love mankind is to make people laugh at the truth, to make truth laugh, because the only truth lies in learning to free ourselves from insane passion for the truth.”
    —Umberto Eco (b. 1932)

    “Not in vain is Ireland pouring itself all over the earth. Divine Providence has a mission for her children to fulfill; though a mission unrecognized by political economists. There is ever a moral balance preserved in the universe, like the vibrations of the pendulum. The Irish, with their glowing hearts and reverent credulity, are needed in this cold age of intellect and skepticism.”
    —Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)
