A new world is not made simply by trying to forget the old. A new world is made with a new spirit, with new values. Our world may have begun that way, but today it is caricature. Our world is a world of things.

We are not peaceful souls; we are smug, timid, queasy and quaky.

If the world is saved, it will not be by old minds with new programs but by new minds with no programs at all. Why not new minds with new programs?

In essay writing, I'm trying to push the form of expository writing. I'm trying to remember, trying to reckon, trying to find connections with the world, the nation and me, but I'm always trying to push the form, too, without being too obvious that I'm trying to push the form.
