In Bluebeard's Castle Quotes

“We shall, I expect, open the last door in the castle even if it leads, perhaps because it leads, onto realities which are beyond the reach of human comprehension and control. We shall do so with that desolate clairvoyance, so marvelously rendered in Bartók's music, because opening doors is the tragic merit of our identity.”
― George Steiner, In Bluebeard's Castle: Some Notes Towards the Redefinition of Culture
