Quotes by Martin H盲gglund (?)

“To keep faith in mortal life, then, is to remain vulnerable to a pain that no strength can finally master. Mortality is not only intrinsic to what makes life meaningful, but also makes life susceptible to lose meaning and become unbearable. The point is not to overcome this vulnerability but to recognize that it is an essential part of why our lifes matter and why we care. (49)”

“We must acknowledge the utter fragility of what holds our lives together鈥攐ur institutions, our shared labor, our love, our mourning鈥攁nd yet keep faith with what offers no final guarantee. This is the double movement of secular faith. (377)”
