The Mastery Of Nature Is Vainly Believed

I'm Not Afraid Of Too Many Things, And I Got That Invincible Kind Of Attitude From My Father.

The Essence Of Man Is His Freedom. Sin Is Committed In That Freedom. Sin Can Therefore Not Be Attributed To A Defect In His Essence. It Can Only Be Understood As A Self-contradiction, Made Possible By The Fact Of His Freedom But Not Following Necessarily From It.

God Grant Me The Serenity To Accept The Things I Cannot Change; Courage To Change The Things I Can; And Wisdom To Know The Difference. Living One Day At A Time; Enjoying One Moment At A Time; Accepting Hardships As The Pathway To Peace; Taking, As He Did, This Sinful World As It Is, Not As I Would Have It; Trusting That He Will Make All Things Right If I Surrender To His Will; That I May Be Reasonably Happy In This Life And Supremely Happy With Him Forever In The Next. Amen.

The Stupidity Of The Average Man Will Permit The Oligarch, Whether Economic Or Political, To Hide His Real Purposes From The Scrutiny Of His Fellows And To Withdraw His Activities From Effective Control. Since It Is Impossible To Count On Enough Moral Goodwill Among Those Who Possess Irresponsible Power To Sacrifice It For The Good Of The Whole, It Must Be Destroyed By Coercive Methods And These Will Always Run The Peril Of Introducing New Forms Of Injustice In Place Of Those Abolished.
