Theodor W. Adorno
“Myth is already enlightenment, and enlightenment reverts to mythology.”
Theodor W. Adorno, Dialectic of Enlightenment: Philosophical Fragments

Aristotle
“The pleasures arising from thinking and learning will make us think and learn all the more. 1153a 23”
Aristotle, The Nicomachean Ethics

Theodor W. Adorno
“Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar.”
Theodor W. Adorno, Minima Moralia: Reflections on a Damaged Life

Jacques Derrida
“A text is not a text unless it hides from the first comer, from the first glance, the law of its composition and the rules of its game. A text remains, moreover, forever imperceptible. Its laws and rules are not, however, harbored in the inaccessibility of a secret; it is simply that they can never be booked, in the present, into anything that could rigorously be called a perception.”
Jacques Derrida, Dissemination

John Hersey
“There, in the tin factory, in the first moment of the atomic age, a human being was crushed by books.”
John Hersey, Hiroshima
