Quotes About Lacunae

The Bible... provides no guide to reading the Bible. In fact, it is full of such inconsistencies, contradictions, lacunae, obscurities, baffling tales, and poetic imagery that to quote it at all is to select from conflicting alternative passages. Every quotation is therefore necessarily an interpretation.

Those are big holes.

Lacunae Lacunae aren't What was going to be Empty anyway. They aren't spaces With uses, such As margins or highway edges. Lacunae are losses In the middle of places- Drops where something Documented happened But the document is Gone-pond shaped Or jagged.

Signification is always the divergence: what the other says appears to me to be full of meaning because his lacunae are never where mine are. Perspective multiplicity.
