Trust is not bound up with knowledge so much as it is with freedom, the openness to the unknown.

Some countries that are close to Europe that already hold Deutschemarks, clearly would automatically hold euros, those are countries in Eastern Europe mainly, a few countries in Africa.

Trust is a skill, one that is an aspect of virtually all human practices, cultures, and relationships.

Another question has been raised rather widely in Europe, in Japan as well as in the United States is what, to what extent will the euro become a reserve currency.

The prices of all imports would rise if the dollar depreciates.

Thus when I have to summarize naturalized spirituality in a single phrase, it is this: the thoughtful love of life.

High kitsch, whatever else may be said of it, cannot be openly dismissed as cheap.
