It Is Not Enough To Stare Up

Hope Is The Deep Orientation Of The Human Soul That Can Be Held At The Darkest Times.

The Kind Of Hope That I Often Think About…i Understand Above All As A State Of Mind, Not A State Of The World. Either We Have Hope Within Us, Or We Don’t. It Is A Dimension Of The Soul It’s Not Essentially Dependent Upon Some Particular Observation Of The World Or Estimate Of The Situation. Hope Is Not The Conviction That Something Will Turn Out Well, But The Certainty That Something Makes Sense, Regardless Of How It Turns Out.

Without Commonly Shared And Widely Entrenched Moral Values And Obligations, Neither The Law, Nor Democratic Government, Nor Even The Market Economy Will Function Properly.

People Thought They Could Explain And Conquer Nature-yet The Outcome Is That They Destroyed It And Disinherited Themselves From It.

As Soon As Man Began Considering Himself The Source Of The Highest Meaning In The World And The Measure Of Everything, The World Began To Lose Its Human Dimension, And Man Began To Lose Control Of It.
