Before anything else, we need a new age of Enlightenment. Our present political systems must relinquish their claims on truth, justice and freedom and have to replace them with the search for truth, justice, freedom and reason.

The freedom of each individual can only be the freedom of all.

Only the freedom of mind can prevent the state from becoming totalitarian and from issuing totalitarian demands.

World history is tragic.

The world is bad but not without hope. It is only hopeless when you look at it from an ideal viewpoint.
