― Edmund Husserl, The Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology

“The pressure of the environment cramps art as it cramps behaviour. One may challenge this environment, but one has to pay for it, and the price is neurotic guilt. There never was an intelligentsia without a guilt complex; it is the income tax one has to pay for wanting to make others richer.”

― Arthur Koestler, The Yogi and the Commissar, and Other Essays
