More From Moliere

In the ranks of the movement [national socialist movement], the most devout protestant could sit beside the most devout catholic, without coming into the slightest conflict with his religious convictions. the mighty common struggle which both carried on against the destroyer of aryan humanity had, on the contrary, taught them mutually to respect and esteem one another.

I've got to stop getting obsessed with human beings and fall in love with a chair. chairs have everything human beings have to offer, and less, which is obviously what i need. less emotional feedback, less warmth, less approval, less patience and less response. the less the merrier. chairs it is. i must furnish my heart with feelings for furniture.

The poorest man may, in his cottage, bid defiance to all the forces of the crown. it may be frail, its roof may shake; the wind may blow though it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the king of england may not enter; all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement.

Where people work longest and with least leisure, they buy the fewest goods. no towns were so poor as those of england where the people, from children up, worked fifteen and sixteen hours a day. they were poor because these overworked people soon wore out -- they became less and less valuable as workers. therefore, they earned less and less and could buy less and less.

Whatever may be open to disagreement, there is one act of evil that may not, the act that no man may commit against others and no man may sanction or forgive. so long as men desire to live together, no man may initiate—do you hear me? no man may start—the use of physical force against others.

The problem of reconciling human suffering with the existence of a god who loves, is only insoluble so long as we attach a trivial meaning to the word "love", and look on things as if man were the centre of them. man is not the centre. god does not exist for the sake of man. man does not exist for his own sake. "thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created." we were made not primarily that we may love god (though we were made for that too) but that god may love us, that we may become objects in which the divine love may rest "well pleased".
