"The strength or weakness of a society depends more on the level of its spiritual life than on its level of industrialization. Neither a market economy nor even general abundance constitutes the crowning achievement of human life. If a nation's spiritual energies have been exhausted, it will not be saved from collapse by the most perfect government structure or by any industrial development. A tree with a rotten core cannot stand." - [[Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn]]

"Everyone holds his fortune in his own hands, like a sculptor the raw material he will fashion into a figure. But it’s the same with that type of [[art]]istic activity as with all others: We are merely born with the capability to do it. The [[skill]] to mold the material into what we want must be learned and attentively cultivated." - [[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe]]
