Flannery O'Connor Quotes

For Nearly Two Centuries The Popular Spirit Of Each Succeeding Generation Has Tended More And More To The View That The Mysteries Of Life Will Eventually Fall Before The Mind Of Man. Many Modern Novelists Have Been More Concerned With The Processes Of Consciousness Than With The Objective World Outside The Mind. In Twentieth-century Fiction It Increasingly Happens That A Meaningless, Absurd World Impinges Upon The Sacred Consciousness Of Author Or Character; Author And Character Seldom Now Go Out To Explore And Penetrate A World In Which The Sacred Is Reflected.
