The car is effectively a black box. — Adam Savage
If it is true that there is an origin of language and if it is true that the origin of language is other to the uttered experience of language, then the origin is irreparably lost and unreachable. Unless, of course, one wishes to locate that origin in the unconscious and spiritual domain of subjectivity and postulate the existence of an unconscious and spiritual language as well as an unconscious and spiritual being separate from the actual and present being. Here the conflation between subjectivity and language is perfect; a conflation that appears to confirm the history of language, subjectivity and knowledge. If this were the case the expression — Paolo Bartoloni

I am for peace and all kinds of ways because the total reality is that you never quite, at least in my experience, you never quite get to be peaceful in the profession that we have all chosen.

You are always questioning yourself and challenging yourself and feeling that you would fall short. — Helen Mirren
We've created a theology in the West of a God who is fundamentally self-centered. The imagery of God as distant, unapproachable, unreachable -- that's not a God who is relational.

There can be no burden for distant unreached peoples without a burden for unreached neighbors. — R. Kent Hughes

Whenever I become discouraged (which is on alternate Tuesdays, between three and four) I lift my spirits by remembering: The artists are on our side!

You were a stone wall, a fort in high, unreachable trees, an island, my own island, that no boat could reach. — Deb Caletti
But...books are so much more. Some of them are webs; you can feel your way along their threads, but just barely, into strange and dark corners.

You will follow me, if we are what we are, you and I, if we live, if the world exists, if you know the meaning of this moment and can't let it slip by, as others let it slip, into the senselessness of the unwilled and unreached. — Ayn Rand
She must have really loved him to leave her home for the Seam. I try to remember that when all I can see is the woman who sat by, blank and unreachable, while her children turned to skin and bones.
