Riddle Quotes

Religious leaders and men of science have the same ideals; they want to understand and explain the universe of which they are part; they both earnestly desire to solve, if a solution be ever possible, that great riddle: Why are we here? Picture Quote #1

The truth beyond the fetish’s glimmering mirage is the relationship of laborer to product; it is the social account of how that object came to be.

We go back and back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning. Nothing could be more familiar than love. Nothing else eludes us so completely Picture Quote #1

How did reason come into the world? As is fitting, in an irrational manner, by accident. One will have to guess at it as at a riddle Picture Quote #1

This whole universe, with all its vastness, grandeur and beauty, is nothing but sheer imagination. In spite of so many discoveries, researches and scientific knowledge, the creation remains a great unsolved riddle Picture Quote #1
