Betrayed Irony Symbols

More From Jay McInerney

We [christians] have the dilemma of using a symbol system that was not made for our worldview, to give our worldview... i think the thing we're waiting for is a genius to come forth who can either make a new symbol system which is still modern, or more properly, as symbol systems don't come overnight, a group of people to modify the symbol systems of our day, so that we can use them for our christian message without a disadvantage.
Christian Thinking People
I don't like the word ironic. i like the word absurdity, and i don't really understand the word 'irony' too much. the irony comes when you try to verbalize the absurd. when irony happens without words, it's much more exalted.
Ironic Trying Too Much
Irony is a disciplinarian feared only by those who do not know it, but cherished by those who do. he who does not understand irony and has no ear for its whispering lacks of what might called the absolute beginning of the personal life. he lacks what at moments is indispensable for the personal life, lacks both the regeneration and rejuvenation, the cleaning baptism of irony that redeems the soul from having its life in finitude though living boldly and energetically in finitude.
Soul Baptism Ironic
To our generation einstein has been made to become a double symbol - a symbol of the mind travelling in the cold regions of space, and a symbol of the brave and generous outcast, pure in heart and cheerful of spirit.

A sex symbol? a symbol of sex? i don't think that i am a sex symbol, although it's very flattering. i'm 59, now, so i think i'm possibly past my sell-by date. i think i am.
Sex Past Thinking
We all get betrayed or we all betray. life is so complex that it's almost impossible to avoid that. betrayal is also a critical theme in all the world's great stories. if christ had not been betrayed, would you have had the resurrection?

Similar Quotes
I am not sure how many "sins" i would recognize in the world. some would surely be defused by changed circumstances. but i can imagine none that is more irredeemably sinful than the betrayal, the exploitation, of the young by those who should care for them.
Wisdom Betrayal Advice
I need a good book i need a good story. i need a good book. the kind that explodes off the shelf. i need some good writing, alive and exciting, to contemplate all by myself. i need a good novel, i need a good read. i probably need two or three. i need a good tale of love and betrayal or perhaps an adventure at sea. i need a good saga. i need a good yarn. a momentous and mightily or slight one. but with thousands and thousands and thousands of books, i need someone to tell me the right one. -john lithgow
