Growing Ends

Famous quotes containing the words growing and/or ends:

    The true use of Shakespeare or of Cervantes, of Homer or of Dante, of Chaucer or of Rabelais, is to augment one’s own growing inner self.... The mind’s dialogue with itself is not primarily a social reality. All that the Western Canon can bring one is the proper use of one’s own solitude, that solitude whose final form is one’s confrontation with one’s own mortality.
    Harold Bloom (b. 1930)

    ... the space left to freedom is very small. ... ends are inherent in human nature and the same for all.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
