King Baldwin

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or baldwin:

    Cities are ... distinguished by the catastrophic forms they presuppose and which are a vital part of their essential charm. New York is King Kong, or the blackout, or vertical bombardment: Towering Inferno. Los Angeles is the horizontal fault, California breaking off and sliding into the Pacific: Earthquake.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    But the relationship of morality and power is a very subtle one. Because ultimately power without morality is no longer power.
    —James Baldwin (1924–1987)
