Conversations in Maine Quotes

“How do you get people to want to live in time, to have a sense of the importance of time for growth, development, of the need for ups-and-downs, of non-homogenized development? [...] A revolution in the U.S. is only going to be led and made by people with some sense of the thickness of time, of time as duration, of time as heterogenous, of development through contradiction, not in a straight line.”
― James Boggs, Conversations in Maine: Exploring Our Nation's Future

“Ideas cannot be changed through argument. We are not seeking to discover new ideas but rather to create new attitudes in ourselves and others with regard to ideas.”
― James Boggs, Conversations in Maine: Exploring Our Nation's Future
