"Leisure has been, and always will be, the first foundation of any culture.... in our bourgeois Western world total labor has vanquished leisure. Unless we regain the art of silence and insight, the ability for nonactivity, unless we substitute true leisure for our hectic amusements, we will destroy our culture – and ourselves." (Josef Pieper)

• Quote from Edmund Husserl about good persons living in dark times (136 words).
• Quote from Melaine Klein about the problem and the solution (87 words).
• Quote from Claude Levi-Strauss about grit and grace (323 words).
