James K.A. Smith Quote

It’s not meaning, and it’s certainly not meaning in general, he says. Indeed, there is something absurd about the idea that our lives could be focused on meaning as such, rather than on some specific good or value. One might die for God, or the Revolution, or the classless society, but not for meaning
