>Inability to accept the mystic experience is more than an intellectual
>handicap. Lack of awareness of the basic unity of organism and
>environment is a serious and dangerous hallucination. For in a
>civilization equipped with immense technological power, the sense of
>alienation between humans and nature leads to the use of technology in a
>hostile spirit---to the "conquest" of nature instead of intelligent
>co-operation with nature.
>    -Alan Watts

>"A popular government, without popular information, or the means of
>acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy - or perhaps
>both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance, and a people who mean to
>be their own Governors must arm themselves with the power which
>knowledge gives."
