The Spirit of Utopia Quotes

“There is nothing there yet if nothing has vanished but distress.”
― Ernst Bloch, The Spirit of Utopia

“To find it, to find the right thing, for which it is worthy to live, to be organized, and to have time: that is why we go, why we cut new, metaphysically constitutive paths, summon what is not, build into the blue, and build ourselves into the blue, and there seek the true, the real, where the merely factual disappears—incipit vita nova.”
― Ernst Bloch, The Spirit of Utopia
