The best quotes on Progress
A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at, for it leaves out the one country at which Humanity is always landing. And when humanity lands there, it looks out, and, seeing a better country, sets sail. Progress is the realisation of Utopias. England will never be civilized until she has added Utopia to her dominions.

The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hither to harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

The initiatic experience, therefore, represents a change of visual that allowed the man to be connected with the divine. Apparently, in our current world the initiations seem disappeared, but they still exist as which weakened rituals of passage, indeed the several celebrations that are carried out for the new year, the births, the birthdays or any social type of conquest, are a pale memory of the rituals of spiritual rebirth that went with the man in long time. Very rarely, today, these passages correspond to ontological changes of the individual that exhausts them instead in an acquisition of concrete personal power and not in symbolic sense. For this reason the man more does not succeed to put into effect that form of spiritual regeneration that was natural in other times.

We shouldn't be worried by our past because we can only regret our mistakes. However, we should be worried even less by the future because it doesn't depend on us and maybe we will never reach it. The preent is the only time really ours...
However, the world is so restlss that we are never thinking about the present and the moment that we are living, but always about the one that we'll live.
In this world we are always busy living the future and never living now.
