Splitting Up Quotes

• No importaba lo que le pasara a una persona, la vida seguía en otra parte. La primera vez que Kennedy me besó, era lógico que, al mismo tiempo, otras personas se estuvieran separando. Y la noche que Kennedy me rompió el corazón, en algún lugar -quizás allí mismo, en mi dormitorio- otras personas se estaban enamorando.

• As modern physics started with the Newtonian revolution, so modern philosophy starts with what one might call the Cartesian Catastrophe. The catastrophe consisted in the splitting up of the world into the realms of matter and mind, and the identification of 'mind' with conscious thinking.
