What do we take for truth? The lofty edifices of European thinking. But they rest on the cornerstone of dogmatisms who from time immemorial based their theories on a mixture of folk superstition-- such as the superstition about souls-- and some daring generalizations from very limited human, all-too-human, experiences.

"Religious, moral and aesthetic sensibilities belong only to the surface of things, though man likes to believe that they touch the heart of the world. This is because they are the things that give meaning to his life, making him deeply happy or unhappy. So he decieves himself in the astrological delusion, believing that the starry sky revolves around his own fate."
