The deepest urge in human nature is the desire to be important. - John Dewey

وأن لنا أن نتعزى بأن نقول إن ظروفاَ غير عادية، مثل ما قد ىيصيب بعض الدول من خذلان وإذلال قومي، قد دفع الناس إلى الترحيب بأي شكل من أشكال الحُكم، يمكن أن يعيد إليهم الاحترام لوقميتهم وكرامتهم الأهلية

The good man is the man who, no matter how morally unworthy he has been, is moving to become better.

Since the artist cares in a peculiar way for the phase of experience in which union is achieved, he does not shun moments of resistance and tension. He rather cultivates them, not for their own sake but because of their potentialities, bringing to living consciousness an experience that is unified and total.
