Their cumulative effect guarantees that the U.S. will cease to resemble the
country outlined in the Constitution of 1787. First, there will be a state of
perpetual war, leading to more terrorism against Americans wherever they may be
and a spreading reliance on nuclear weapons among smaller nations as they try to
ward off the imperial juggernaut. Second is a loss of democracy and
Constitutional rights as the presidency eclipses Congress and is itself
transformed from a co-equal 'executive branch' of government into a military
junta. Third is the replacement of truth by propaganda, disinformation, and the
glorification of war, power, and the military legions. Lastly, there is

grandiose military projects and shortchanges the education, health, and safety
of its citizens."

69. "Defenders of the short-sighted men who in their
greed and selfishness will, if permitted, rob our country of half its charm by
their reckless extermination of all useful and beautiful wild things sometimes
seek to champion them by saying that 'the game belongs to the people.' So it does; and
not merely to the people now alive, but to the unborn people. The 'greatest good
for the greatest number' applies to the number within the womb of time, compared
to which those now alive form but an insignificant fraction. Our duty to the
whole, including the unborn generations, bids us restrain an unprincipled
present-day minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations."

90. "The more knowledge we
acquire the more mystery we find. A human being is part of the whole called by
us the universe. A part limited in time and space. He experiences his himself,
his thoughts, his feelings as something separate from himself. A kind of optical
illusion of his consciousness. This illusion is kind of a prison for us,
restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons
nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening
our circle of compassion to embrace all these creatures and the whole of nature
in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for
such achievement is, in itself, part of the liberation and a foundation for
inner security."
