Throughout Life, From Childhood, From School Until We Die, We Are Taught To Compare Ourselves With Another; Yet When I Compare Myself With Another I Am Destroying Myself.

It Is No Measure Of Health To Be Well Adjusted To A Profoundly Sick Society. We Have Lost It, Or We Have Never Had It; And, Because We Do Not Know How To Judge Anything, We Have Been Led Here And Pushed There, Beaten Up, Driven, Politically, Religiously And Socially. We Don't Know, But It Is Difficult To Say We Don't Know.

If You Lose Touch With Nature You Lose Touch With Humanity. If There's No Relationship With Nature Then You Become A Killer; Then You Kill Baby Seals, Whales, Dolphins, And Man Either For Gain, For "sport," For Food, Or For Knowledge. Then Nature Is Frightened Of You, Withdrawing Its Beauty. You May Take Long Walks In The Woods Or Camp In Lovely Places But You Are A Killer And So Lose Their Friendship. You Probably Are Not Related To Anything To Your Wife Or Your Husband.

Freedom And Love Go Together. Love Is Not A Reaction. If I Love You Because You Love Me, That Is Mere Trade, A Thing To Be Bought In The Market; It Is Not Love. To Love Is Not To Ask Anything In Return, Not Even To Feel That You Are Giving Something- And It Is Only Such Love That Can Know Freedom.

If You Lose Touch With Nature You Lose Touch With Humanity.
