New York Is The Perfect

By Fashion And Built-in Obsolescence The Economies Of Machine Production, Instead Of Producing Leisure And Durable Wealth, Are Duly Cancelled Out By The Mandatory Consumption On An Even Larger Scale.

By Putting Business Before Every Other Manifestation Of Life, Our Mechanical And Financial Civilization Has Forgotten The Chief Business Of Life: Namely, Growth, Reproduction, Development. It Pays Infinite Attention To The Incubator-and It Forgets The Egg!

Moment To Moment, It Turns Out, Is Not God's Conception, Or Nature's. It Is Man Conversing With Himself About And Through A Piece Of Machinery He Created."we Effectively Became "time-keepers, And Then Time-savers, And Now Time-servers" With The Invention Of The Clock."

Before Modern Man Can Gain Control Over The Forces That Now Threaten His Very Existence, He Must Resume Possession Of Himself. This Sets The Chief Mission For The City Of The Future: That Of Creating A Visible Regional And Civic Structure, Designed To Make Man At Home With His Deeper Self And His Larger World, Attached To Images Of Human Nature And Love.

Every Transformation Of Humanity Has Rested Upon Deep Stirrings And Intuitions, Whose Rationalized Expression Takes The Form Of A New Picture Of The Cosmos And The Nature Of The Human.
