More From Walter Benjamin
- "The art of storytelling is reaching its end because the epic side of truth, wisdom, is dying out."
- "Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away."
- "Memory is not an instrument for exploring the past but its theatre. It is the medium of past experience, as the ground is the medium in which dead cities lie interred."
