True Art Is The Intermediary Between Man's Ordinary Nature And His Higher Potentialities.

Economic Policies Absorb Almost The Entire Attention Of Government, And At The Same Time Become Ever More Impotent.

No Degree Of Prosperity Could Justify The Accumulation Of Large Amounts Of Highly Toxic Substances Which Nobody Knows How To Make Safe And Which Remain An Incalculable Danger To The Whole Of Creation For Historical Or Even Geological Ages. To Do Such A Thing Is A Transgression Against Life Itself, A Transgression Infinitely More Serious Than Any Crime Perpetrated By Man. The Idea That A Civilization Could Sustain Itself On Such A Transgression Is An Ethical, Spiritual, And Metaphysical Monstrosity. It Means Conducting The Economical Affairs Of Man As If People Did Not Matter At All.
