We Do Not Take Humor Seriously Enough.

The Competition Between Human Beings Destroys With Cold And Diabolic Brutality... Under The Pressure Of This Competitive Fury We Have Not Only Forgotten What Is Useful To Humanity As A Whole, But Even That Which Is Good And Advantageous To The Individual. [...] One Asks, Which Is More Damaging To Modern Humanity: The Thirst For Money Or Consuming Haste... In Either Case, Fear Plays A Very Important Role: The Fear Of Being Overtaken By One's Competitors, The Fear Of Becoming Poor, The Fear Of Making Wrong Decisions Or The Fear Of Not Being Up To Snuff...

Hatred Of Humanity And Love Of Animals Make A Very Bad Combination.

In Science, New Ideas Are At First Completely Neglected, Later Fiercely Attacked, And Finally Regarded As Well Known.
