The Ancients Knew Something, Which We Seem

I Came- Though The Child Of Entirely Irreligious (jewish) Parents - To A Deep Religiousness, Which, However, Reached An Abrupt End At The Age Of Twelve.

The Daily Struggle Does Not Arise From A Purpose Or A Program, But From An Immediate Need.

One Must Shy Away From Questionable Undertakings, Even When They Bear A High-sounding Name.

I Believe In Intuition And Inspiration...at Times I Feel Certain I Am Right While Not Knowing The Reason.

I Believe, Indeed, That Overemphasis On The Purely Intellectual Attitude, Often Directed Solely To The Practical And Factual, In Our Education, Has Led Directly To The Impairment Of Ethical Values. I Am Not Thinking So Much Of The Dangers With Which Technical Progress Has Directly Confronted Mankind, As Of The Stifling Of Mutual Human Considerations By A 'matter-of-fact' Habit Of Thought Which Has Come To Lie Like A Killing Frost Upon Human Relations. Without 'ethical Culture' There Is No Salvation For Humanity.
