Power is a poison well known for thousands of years. If only no one were ever to acquire material power over others! But to the human being who has faith in some force that holds dominion over all of us, and who is therefore conscious of his own limitations, power is not necessarily fatal. For those, however, who are unaware of any higher sphere, it is a deadly poison. For them there is no antidote. ↗

When they come to Europe, they are confronted by still closed borders. Thus, the concept of open borders is a very selective concept, one that is not taken seriously at all in the experience of non-Europeans. ↗

Enthusiasm - a distemper of youth, curable by small doses of repentance in connection with outward applications of experience. ↗

One thing I really hate is experience. Experience for me doesn't work. Everybody's talking about experience this, experience that. ↗
