Allan Bloom Quotes
I Do Not Believe That My Generation, My Cousins Who Have Been Educated In The American Way, All Of Whom Are MDs Or PhDs, Have Any Comparable Learning ... I Am Not Saying Anything So Trite As That Life Is Fuller When People Have Myths To Live By. I Mean Rather That A Life Based On The Book Is Closer To The Truth, That It Provides The Material For Deeper Research In And Access To The Real Nature Of Things. Without The Great Revelations, Epics, And Philosophies As Part Of Our Natural Vision, There Is Nothing To See Out There, And Eventually Little Left Inside. The Bible Is Not The Only Means To Furnish A Mind, But Without A Book Of Similar Gravity, Read With The Gravity Of The Potential Believer, It Will Remain Unfurnished.
