The natural attitude of the mind is not concerned with the critique of knowledge. In such an attitude, our attention is tumed - in acts of intuition and thought - to things given to us, and given as a matter of course, even though they are given in different ways and in different modes of being according to the source and level of our knowledge of them.

    The man who is moved by ethical aspiration is at the same time subjected to his own aspiration, the work of infinite becoming of which he is the creator, for this reason the forms of life of the ethical man have a peculiar character. Their life has lost every naivety and, as such, the original beauty of a natural and organic growth - to have in exchange the most elevated beauty of the soul , that of the ethical battle for clarity, truth, justice, originating beauty from man's authentic goods, of which it has become a "second nature".
