Pascal Bruckner

“The obsession with security at any price petrifies us, and we increase our fear by trying to eliminate risk. That is what is ridiculous about the great outcries in the media: we wake up in order to demand more passivity, a better protected life. The challenge is not only to decrease the amount of space the media devote to hazards but also to increase our ability to resist misfortunes. To augment our endurance rather than our panic.”

Pascal Bruckner, Fanaticism of the Apocalypse: Save the Earth, Punish Human Beings
