I believe that one can and must hope for a sane society that furthers man's capacity to love his fellow men, to work and create, to develop his reason and his objectivity of a sense of himself that is based on the experience of his productive energy. I believe that one can and must hope for the collective regaining of a mental health that is characterized by the capacity to love and to create.

Society must be organized in such a way that mans social, loving nature is not separated from his social existence, but becomes one with it.

Fairness means not to use fraud and trickery in the exchange of commodities and services and the exchange of feelings.

I want to mention that Marx shares something, if you don't mind the comparison, with the Old Testament: many people talk about him, but nobody has read him.

Selfish persons are incapable of loving others, but they are not capable of loving themselves either.

The mother's and father's attitudes toward the child correspond to the child's own needs.... Mother has the function of making himsecure in life, father has the function of teaching him, guiding him to cope with those problems with which the particular society the child has been born into confronts him.

The task we must set for ourselves is not to feel secure, but to be able to tolerate insecurity.
