Hans Magnus Enzensberger Quotes
I don't wish to defend everything that has been done in the name of Utopia. But I think many of the attacks misconceive its nature and function.

It is about inventing and imagining worlds for our contemplation and delight. It opens up our minds to the possibilities of the human condition.
