Emmanuel Lévinas: Idézetek angolul

“The peace of empires issued from war rests on war. It does not restore to the alienated beings their lost identity.”

Emmanuel Levinas könyv Totality and Infinity

Kontextus: The moral consciousness can sustain the mocking gaze of the political man only if the certitude of peace dominates the evidence of war. Such a certitude is not obtained by a simple play of antitheses. The peace of empires issued from war rests on war. It does not restore to the alienated beings their lost identity. For that a primordial and original relation with being is needed.
