Quotes by Michel Maffesoli  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The countable measure always brings about an even greater excessiveness. And like a sorcerer's apprentice, a society that does not know how to play upon the coincidentia oppositorum exposes itself to the catastrophic explosion of the element that it has denied, and consequently was not able to master. The productive phantasm, full-blown positivism, and unidimensionality are the armor that, through its very rigidity, engenders explosion.”
Michel Maffesoli, The Shadow of Dionysus: A Contribution to the Sociology of the Orgy

“To play, to love, to bask in the sun, to profit from time's passage, all that comprises the existential adventure, by an effect of specific structure, inscribes itself in the order of the measurement, of the economy. But can the effervescent social desire to live be economized?”
Michel Maffesoli, The Shadow of Dionysus: A Contribution to the Sociology of the Orgy
