When there is propaganda, we are no longer able to evaluate certain questions, or even to discuss them

The orchestration of press, radio and television to create a continuous, lasting and total environment renders the influence of propaganda virtually unnoticed precisely because it creates a constant environment.

Everyone has been taught that technique is an application of science.... This traditional view is radically false. It takes into account only a single category of science and only a short period of time

No one knows where we are going, the aim of life has been forgotten, the end has been left behind. Man has set out at tremendous speed- to go nowhere.

God is not an encyclopedia whose task is to satisfy our curiosity.

Technique has taken over the whole of civilization. Death, procreation, birth all submit to technical efficiency and systemization.

It is the multiplication of men who are exluded from working which provokes war. We ought at least to bear this in mind when we boast of the continual decrease in human participation in technical operations.
