The American dream was not, at least at the beginning, a rags-to-riches type of narrow materialism.

Innocence and optimism have one basic failing: they have no fundamental depth.

Technology and production can be great benefactors of man, but they are mindless instruments, and if undirected they careen along with a momentum of their own. In our country, they pulverize everything in their path - the landscape, the natural environment.

There is a revolution coming. It will not be like revolutions of the past. It will originate with the individual and with culture . . .

The presumed causes of Americas troubles can be summed up simply: the evils of unlimited competition, and abuses by those with economic power.
