Quotes by D.E. Wittkower (?)

“Our intellectual odysseys take us out of and beyond this world but where they take us we cannot live for long—the air is too rarefied and we have nothing solid upon which to stand. What those odysseys into the strange and new can do is to make our ordinary, workaday world strange and new to us again, removing from it the crust of familiarity created by custom and habit.”
― D. E. Wittkower, Philip K. Dick and Philosophy: Do Androids Have Kindred Spirits?
