Brut Quotes

“Explanation is the bastion of the intellectual coward, a house of mirror glass. Explanation is the siren luring the incomprehensible to crash against the rocks of reason. Explanation bulldozes oral tradition, paves over folklore. In your haste to create fact, your apologia disregards history. You exclude generations of human phenomena. Why? Because it is older than your science. I am made tired by this sanctimonious need to quantify all experience. Can you not see out of your eyes? The world is too large, too wondrous, to be organized on shelves. To think there is an answer to all of this is to deny the true facts of existence.”
― Sam Tallent, Brut
