DIARIO 22 DE MARZO DE 1853

I dont expect hyperinflation but society will def collapse in europe
 
 
 
Old pagan wisdom knew that man has his noblest, happiest and most human part appendant to what is suprahuman, and that he can only live by what he lives for and is ready to die for, and which is better than himself. If our humanism has failed, it is perhaps because it was centered in man alone, and utilitarian, not heroic, because it tried to reject death and evil into oblivion, instead of facing them

In offering his book "On the threshold of the Apocalypse" to one of his readers some thirty years ago, Léon Bloy wrote on the first page: "My dear friend, pray, be so kind as to walk in." It seems that, as a matter of fact, we did walk in. Our age appears as an apocalyptic, a liquidation of several centuries of human history. We are picking the grapes of wrath. We have not finished suffering.
 
(...)
 
A historical liquidation like that we are undergoing does not take place in one day. Time is necessary to make reason able to control the formidable material means that industrial and technological revolution has put in our frail hands. Time is necessary to stir up, from the depths of human bewilderment, a moral and spiritual revolution which is incomparably more needed than any other revolution.

Tengo mucho que aprender del Indio, nada del misionero.

Los bosques de Maine

Los Franceses respetaron a los Indios como pueblo separado e independiente y hablaron de ellos y se compararon con ellos de un modo que los Ingleses nunca emplearon. No solo fueron a la guerra con los Indios, sino que vivieron en casa con ellos.

Diario 8 de Febrero de 1852

Supongo que lo que en otros hombres es religión, en mí es amor a la naturaleza.

Diario 30 de Octubre de 1842

Seguramente la alegría es la condición de la vida.(Surely joy is the condition of life)
