Quotations

“The fate of the world depends on balancing the development of the mind, so powerfully promoted by science, with the development of the heart—the capacity to experience the higher emotions, the capacity to love.” (foreword to The Hinge of History 1995)

“[T]he crisis point is dawning: grow up or blow up! What does 'growing up' involve? First, to feel and express love, compassion and concern for others.” (The Federalist Debate, March 2003, p. 27; photo federalunion.org.uk)
