Famous quotes containing the words gain and/or saturation:
“[A man’s] moral conscience is the curse he had to accept from the gods in order to gain from them the right to dream.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
“In the twentieth century, death terrifies men less than the absence of real life. All these dead, mechanized, specialized actions, stealing a little bit of life a thousand times a day until the mind and body are exhausted, until that death which is not the end of life but the final saturation with absence.”
—Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)
