Mortimer J. Adler Quotes

A Good Performance, Like A Human Life, Is A Temporal Affair - A Process In Time. It Is Good As A Whole Through Being Good In Its Parts, And Through Their Good Order To One Another. It Cannot Be Called Good As A Whole Until It Is Finished. During The Process All We Can Say Of It, If We Speak Precisely, Is That It Is Becoming Good. The Same Is True Of A Whole Human Life. Just As The Whole Performance Never Exists At Any One Time, But Is A Process Of Becoming, So A Human Life Is Also A Performance In Time And A Process Of Becoming. And Just As The Goodness That Attaches To The Performance As A Whole Does Not Attach To Any Of Its Parts, So The Goodness Of A Human Life As A Whole Belongs To It Alone, And Not To Any Of Its Parts Or Phases.
