“It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.”
—Oscar Wilde (18541900)
“Physical nature lies at our feet shackled with a hundred chains. What of the control of human nature? Do not point to the triumphs of psychiatry, social services or the war against crime. Domination of human nature can only mean the domination of every man by himself.”
