“… the horizon is not the limit of meaning,
but that which extends meaning
from what is directly given
to the whole context in which it is given,
including a sense of a world.”
— David Vessey,
Gadamer and the Fusion of Horizons
(Quoted here on Saturday, June 4, 2005.)
"You grab your experiential richness where you find it."
— Roberta Smith, "Postwar Art Gets a Nervy Makeover"
in the online New York Times today
"So, how do we sift truth from belief? How do we write
our own histories, personally or culturally, and thereby
define ourselves? How do we penetrate years, centuries,
of historical distortion to find original truth? Tonight, this
will be our quest."
— Robert Langdon, symbologist, in "The Da Vinci Code."
"… in Spain. There they are robes worn by priests."
— Langdon, op. cit.
