Man's welfare and probably even his survival depend upon his learning to live in harmony, rather than in combat with [the cosmic forces that control all other life].
A child's world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us ...that true instinct for what is beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood.
Mankind has gone very far into an artificial world of his own creation. He has sought to insulate himself... from the realities of earth and water and the growing seed.
Wonder and humility are wholesome emotions, and they do not exist side by side with a lust for destruction.
