“we鈥檒l speak about two young men who found much happiness for a few weeks and lived the remainder of their lives dipping cotton swabs into that bowl of happiness, fearing they鈥檇 use it up, without daring to drink more than a thimbleful on ritual anniversaries.鈥 But this thing that almost never was still beckons, I wanted to tell him.

“Just as terror, even in its pre-total, merely tyrannical form ruins all relationships between men, so the self-compulsion of ideological thinking ruins all relationships with reality. The preparation has succeeded when people have lost contact with their fellow men as well as the reality around them; for together with these contacts, men lose the capacity of both experience and thought. The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.”

“People are always talking about it being their duty to find their way to their fellow men 鈥 to their neighbour, as they are forever saying with all the baseness of false sentiment 鈥 when in fact it is purely and simply a question of finding their way to themselves.

“Until now, human organization could only be based upon something negative which could not be conquered: SCARCITY, and something false: PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY... No wonder instead of producing stability, it produced the exact opposite.
The current human organization based upon dealing with the consequences of scarcity and being considered responsible for our individual characteristics which we could never have chosen (our nature, our nurture, our 鈥渟oul鈥, and all the choices they engender), will always lead to an irrational, hence unstable human organization causing perpetual conflicts, which is no organization at all.
Today, we have the luxury to initiate a rational self-organization based upon two positives:
-our HUMAN CONSENSUS; our common desires shared by all, and
-the SCIENTIFIC PROJECT to achieve them.”

“To 鈥榩retend鈥 is to say that I鈥檓 willing to waste the precious energy that it takes to pretend, and I鈥檓 unwilling to cultivate the bravery that it takes to be real. And I am at a complete loss to pretend that either of these aren鈥檛 true.”
