Annie Dillard Quotes

As Symbol, Or As The Structuring Of Symbols, Art Can Render Intelligible
Or At Least Visible, At Least Discussible
Those Wilderness Regions Which Philosophy Has Abandoned And Those Hazardous Terrains Where Science's Tools Do Not Fit. I Mean The Rim Of Knowledge Where Language Falters; And I Mean All Those Areas Of Human Experience, Feeling, And Thought About Which We Care So Much And Know So Little: The Meaning Of All We See Before Us, Of Our Love For Each Other, And The Forms Of Freedom In Time, And Power, And Destiny, And All Whereof We Imagine: Grace, Perfection, Beauty, And The Passage Of All Materials To Thoughts, And Of All Ideas To Forms.
