Creative act Quote by Stathis Kouvelakis

“The event, in its emergence, poses its own premises, determining that they were the conditions for its realization. This transition is always the result of a salto mortale, which is a creative act in the sense that it gives the preceding links in the chain of events their meaning.” quote by Stathis Kouvelakis
