Ernst Bloch

Seneca
“There is no favorable wind for the sailor who doesn’t know where to go”
Seneca

Walter Benjamin
“No poem is intended for the reader, no picture for the beholder, no symphony for the listener.”
Walter Benjamin, Illuminations: Essays and Reflections

Walter Benjamin
“Our image of happiness is indissolubly bound up with the image of redemption.”
Walter Benjamin

“The true Renaissance person is endowed with panoramic attention.... The habit of noticing the ensemble of everything and its constituent parts is a matter of will, not of innate aptitude. It involves the conscious noticing of things and the gaps that separate and connect them.”
Christy Wampole
