“When truth is nothing but the truth, its unnatural, its an abstraction that resembles nothing in the real world. In nature there are always so many other irrelevant things mixed up with the essential truth. Thats why art moves youprecisely because its unadulterated with all the irrelevancies of real life.”
—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
“A revolution is not the overturning of a cart, a reshuffling in the cards of state. It is a process, a swelling, a new growth in the race. If it is real, not simply a trauma, it is another ring in the tree of history, layer upon layer of invisible tissue composing the evidence of a circle.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
