Mircea Eliade Quotes
It Is Above All The Valorizing Of The Present That Requires Emphasizing. The Simple Fact Of Existing, Of Living In Time, Can Comprise A Religious Dimension. This Dimension Is Not Always Obvious, Since Sacrality Is In A Sense Camouflaged In The Immediate, In The "natural" And The Everyday. The Joy Of Life Discovered By The Greeks Is Not A Profane Type Of Enjoyment: It Reveals The Bliss Of Existing, Of Sharing - Even Fugitively - In The Spontaneity Of Life And The Majesty Of The World. Like So Many Others Before And After Them, The Greeks Learned That The Surest Way To Escape From Time Is To Exploit The Wealth, At First Sight Impossible To Suspect, Of The Lived Instant.
