Denis de Rougemont
“This peculiar connexion between a certain view of woman and the European conception of war has had profound consequences for morality, education, and politics.”
Denis de Rougemont, Love in the Western World

René Girard
“It is the Other whom one must love as oneself if one does not desire to idolize and hate the Other in the depths of the underground.”
René Girard, Resurrection from the Underground: Feodor Dostoevsky

René Girard
“The underground appeared in this novel as the failure and reversal of Christianity.”
René Girard, Resurrection from the Underground: Feodor Dostoevsky

Denis de Rougemont
“So soon as passion goes beyond instinct and becomes truly itself, it tends to self self-description, either in order to justify or intensify its being, or else simply in order to keep going.”
Denis de Rougemont, Love in the Western World

Sohrab Ahmari
“The general public long ago stopped looking for beauty in high culture. But it still has TV and the movies....you are far more likely to find genuinely mesmerising images and real beauty in big-budget Hollywood movies -- think of, say, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar or his Dark Knight Trilogy -- than in any European art-house”
Sohrab Ahmari, The New Philistines
