“The miracle that saves the world, the realm of human affairs, from its normal, ‘natural’ ruin is ultimately the fact of natality, in which the faculty of action is ontologically rooted.

Only the full experience of this capacity can bestow upon human affairs faith and hope.”
― Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition
