Without arbeit there are no miracles. István Szabó/Zoltán Szantó

„And it seems to me that the moralist is the most useless and contemptible of creatures.

He is useless in that he would expend his energies upon making judgements rather than upon gaining knowledge, for the reason that judgement is easy and knowledge is difficult.

He is contemptible in that his judgements reflect a vision of himself which in his ignorance and pride he would impose upon the world.“ Caius Cilnius Maecenas to Titus Livius. (John Williams. Augustus.)
