22 " Humans don’t connect their actions with what befalls them. Don’t they perceive time as linear?”" They do,” said Aitassi. “They just don’t see why they should do anything individually to change their future to the one they want. All eight billion of them. "
23 " Where exactly does it come from, I’d like to know, this ineradicable attitude of superiority toward the past? This stubbornly dumb, can’t-kill-it-with-an-ax conviction that we, the now, critically and categorically know better than they, the past.

They have found freedom at the ballot box, and then they have taken on plastic chains around their minds and souls and mortgage their future on credit cards. They have to learn better - they have to learn the value of ideas and health as opposed to wealth. "
