“The confusion is not my invention. We cannot listen to a conversation for five minutes without being aware of the confusion. It is all around us and our only chance now is to let it in. The only chance of renovation is to open our eyes and see the mess. It is not a mess you can make sense of.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
“The most important function of the university in an age of reason is to protect reason from itself.”
—Allan Bloom (1930–1992)

—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
