We must make an idol of our fear, and that idol we shall call god.

Vi måste göra oss ett beläte av vår rädsla och det belätet ska vi kalla för Gud.

Another quote from the 1950s

As I sit looking out of a window of the building
I wish I did not have to write the instruction manual on the uses of a new metal.
I look down into the street and see people, each walking with an inner peace,
And envy them-they are so far away from me!
Not one of them has to worry about getting out this manual on schedule.
