"Just as modern mass production requires the standardization of commodities, so the social process requires standardization of man, and this standardization is called equality."

Equality

"The only way in which the world can be grasped ultimately lies, not in thought, but in the act, in the experience of oneness."

Philosophy

"What holds true for the individual holds true for a society. It is never static; if it does not grow, it decays; if it does not transcend the status quo for the better, it changes for the worse. Often we, the individual or the people who make up a society, have the illusion we could stand still and not alter the given situation in the one or the other direction. This is one of the most dangerous illusions. The moment we stand still, we begin to decay."

Society

"Human nature, though being the product of historical evolution, has certain inherent mechanisms and laws, to discover which is the task of psychology."

Science

"Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction."
