Quotes about alienation

There is only one way left to escape the alienation of present day society: to retreat ahead of it. (Taylor Christine)
By alienation is meant a mode of experience in which the person experiences himself as an alien. He has become, one might say, estranged from himself. He does not experience himself as the center of his world, as the creator of his own acts -- but his acts and their consequences have become his masters, whom he obeys, or whom he may even worship. The alienated person is out of touch with himself as he is out of touch with any other person. He, like the others, is experienced as things are experienced; with the senses and with common sense, but at the same time without being related to oneself and to the world outside positively. (Taylor Christine)
There is no religion in which everyday life is not considered a prison; there is no philosophy or ideology that does not think that we live in alienation. (Taylor Christine)
We are bemused and crazed creatures, strangers to our true selves, to one another, and to the spiritual and material world -- mad, even, from an ideal standpoint we can glimpse but not adopt. (Taylor Christine)

Alienation as our present destiny is achieved only by outrageous violence perpetrated by human beings on human beings. (Taylor Christine)
Without alienation, there can be no politics. (Taylor Christine)
The most dangerous aspect of present-day life is the dissolution of the feeling of individual responsibility. Mass solitude has done away with any difference between the internal and the external, between the intellectual and the physical. (Taylor Christine)
“I looked like an alien, and in front of the most beautiful people on TV.” (Taylor Christine)
