What time does (Rahman)
That is what time does to us all. It kills all the lives we might have had, destroys all the worlds we might have known.
Zia Haider Rahman, In The Light Of What We Know
Labels: quote
The vast accumulations of knowledge—or at least of information—deposited by the nineteenth century have been responsible for an equally vast ignorance. When there is so much to be known, when there are so many fields of knowledge in which the same words are used with different meanings, when everyone knows a little about a great many things, it becomes increasingly difficult for anyone to know whether he knows what he is talking about or not. And when we do not know, or when we do not know enough, we tend always to substitute emotions for thoughts.
