There are always great dangers in letting the best be the enemy of the good.
The great enemy of the life of faith in God is not sin, but the good which is not good enough. The good is always the enemy of the best.

The good is always the enemy of the best.
The writer is a spiritual anarchist, as in the depth of his soul every man is. He is discontented with everything and everybody.

The enemy of the black is not the white. The enemy of capitalist is not communist, the enemy of homosexual is not heterosexual, the enemy of Jew is not Arab, the enemy of youth is not the old, the enemy of hip is not redneck, the enemy of Chicano is not gringo and the enemy of women is not men. We all have the same enemy. The enemy is the tyranny of the dull mind. The enemy is every expert who practices technocratic manipulation, the enemy is every proponent of standardization and the enemy is every victim who is so dull and lazy and weak as to allow himself to be manipulated and standardized.
