I transcribe my text with no concern for timeliness. In the years when I discovered the Abbé Vallet volume, there was a widespread conviction that one should write only out of a commitment to the present, in order to change the world. Now, after ten years or more, the man of letters (restored to his loftiest dignity) can happily write out of pure love of writing. And so I now feel free to tell, for sheer narrative pleasure, the story of Adso of Melk, and I am comforted and consoled in finding it immeasurably remote in time (now that the waking of reason has dispelled all the monsters that its sleep had generated), gloriously lacking in any relevance for our day, atemporally alien to our hopes and our certainties.
Umberto Eco (The Name of the Rose)
Men deft men mental men of loving men all men Vile men virtuous men same men from which men Sweet and men of mercy men such making men said Has each man that sees it Cry as men to the men sensate Conceptual recognition the men And their poverty speaking to the men Is about timeliness men is about Previous palpability from which The problematic politics adorable And humble especially Young men of sheepish privilege becoming Sweet new style

Hardcore Gen X-tacy was a fringe concern. Things regularly cited as generationally totemistic were almost always less popular than things devoid of cultural timeliness. Bridget Jones’s Diary was more widely read than Jesus’ Son. For every album sold by Courtney Love, Shania Twain sold fourteen. Over and over, the gap between what’s most associated with Generation X dogma and the behavior of Generation X consumers is illogically vast.
Chuck Klosterman (The Nineties: A Book)
Tradition-loving Catholics hold exactly the opposite. We adhere to the Faith because it is true across all ages until the end of time, and we reject modern errors because they conflict with the truth about God, Christ, man, and the world. We know that the Church makes a serious impact on society and culture only to the extent that she lives at a level beyond the merely temporal and temporary. The way we practice our religion enshrines our anti-modernism because traditional worship is heavily marked by elements from every age through which the Church has passed, amalgamated and elevated into signs of perpetual youthfulness and immortality. You can imagine how thoroughly this must dismay and enrage the Modernists in our midst.

Please tell Jackie Chan... that he is my boy' 'I'm aware I'm making the low continuous moaning noise of a fearful cow, but I can't seem to stop.' 'He was participating in an age- old ritual, where a boy becomes a man and a man becomes a psycho.' 'It's a van of transcendent beauty... All the clowns in the world could fit inside.' 'My mother's expression... called to mind Edvard Munch's The Scream' 'I swear that for a while in the nineties, my father got a newsletter that listed every celebrity who had AIDS. He would pass through the room... announce 'Big time AIDS. Big time.'... leaving a couch full of distressed children in his wake' 'I also recall consuming an enormous quantity and variety of mayonnaise salads, which Lutherans loved and excelled at making. If Jesus himself appeared in their midst and said 'Eat my body,' they would first slather mayonnaise all over him.' 'I step into the nearest shallows with the two youngest toddlers, holding their chubby, resilient wrists in my hands, and immediately my every sense is locked into the ancient, timeliness female effort of Preventing the Next Generation from Dying'...'Meanwhile Jason...is ready to embark on the equally timeless male pursuit of Introducing the Next Generation to Danger... [they] set off together to explore the possibility of hurling their bodies [off the cliff]
