“Schmoller said that those who would send every hungry person to a restaurant, every pregnant woman to a clinic, every child from birth to adulthood to a succession of educational institutions, will simply succeed in changing society into an aggregation of self-seeking, egotistical vagabonds, whose neuroses and tensions will provide a surplus of candidates for mental hospitals.”
― Heinrich Pesch, Ethics and the National Economy

“The trouble with the world is, like a planet full of little brats, everyone's going around constantly pointing the finger at everyone else as being to blame. Almost none look within and at themselves, and commence again from there.
At each and every level of day-to-day life, and just beneath the surface all the while, particularly in so-called leadership, though it's rarely if ever expressed - the immaturity of our age is utterly staggering.”

“The people who make wars, the people who kill and torture and tell lies in the name of their sacred causes, the really evil people in a word- these are never the publicans and the sinners. No, they're the virtuous, respectable men, who have the finest feelings, the best brains, the noblest ideals.”
― Aldous Huxley, After Many a Summer Dies the Swan

“[T]o be forever looking beyond is to remain blind to what is here.”
