Ideal

Famous quotes containing the word ideal:

    In an ideal society, mothers and fathers would produce potty- trained, civilized, responsible new citizens while government and corporate leaders would provide a safe, healthy, economically just community.

    Whoever has witnessed another’s ideal becomes his inexorable judge and as it were his evil conscience.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The desert is a natural extension of the inner silence of the body. If humanity’s language, technology, and buildings are an extension of its constructive faculties, the desert alone is an extension of its capacity for absence, the ideal schema of humanity’s disappearance.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
