We must strongly resist reductions in diversity, especially when it happens, either directly or indirectly, because of our own activities.

We cannot live side by side with obviously distressed people unless they are to blame and we are innocent. Nothing inside them or the way they live can be allowed to disturb our lives.

Enjoy your own authentic stupidity rather than strive vainly to be wise.

Life makes fun of us and we should help it.

After Galileo, Einstein and even Freud, we try to hang onto a pathetic sort of significance on this planet and in this universe, that we are in some way more special than anything else. Our supreme arrogance that in some way the world was created for us has neither scientific nor spiritual reality.
