How can there be methods and systems to arrive at something that is living? to that which is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way, a definite path, but not to that which is living. do not reduce reality to a static thing and then invent methods to reach it. ...truth has no path. truth is living and, therefore, changing. it has no resting place, no form, no organized institution, no philosophy. when you see that, you will understand that this living thing is also what you are. you cannot express and be alive through static, put-together form, through stylized movement.
Philosophy Reality Together
Crime in the city streets is more than a political issue. it's a too rampant fact.... in indianapolis they have come up with a most sensible, affordable approach to the problem. policemen are assigned their police patrol cars for personal use after hours. they are encouraged to use the police car while taking the family shopping, to the movies, and everywhere one takes one's family. as a result, says the police chief's assistant, we may have as many as 400 cars on the street instead of 100 or so per shift. [and] the presence of the police car obviously indicates the proximity of policemen.
