Famous quotes containing the words core and/or values:

    “In the core of God’s abysm,—
    Was a weed of self and schism;
    And ever the Daemonic Love
    Is the ancestor of wars,
    And the parent of remorse.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Postmodernity is the simultaneity of the destruction of earlier values and their reconstruction. It is renovation within ruination.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
