Theodor W. Adorno

“Thinking no longer means anymore than checking at each moment whether one can indeed think.”

“Modernity is a qualitative, not a chronological, category.”

“Dialectic thought is an attempt to break through the coercion of logic by its own means.”

“The darkening of the world makes the irrationality of art rational: radically darkened art.”

“Art is the social antithesis of society, not directly deducible from it.”

“Technology is making gestures precise and brutal, and with them men.”
