"Through excessive thinking, we have lost touch with reality. We confuse
signs, words, numbers, symbols, and ideas with the real world. Most of
us would rather have money than tangible wealth. To most of us, a
great occasion is somehow spoiled unless photographed. To read about it
the next day in the newspaper is oddly more fun for us than the
original event. This is a disaster, for as a result of confusing the
real world of nature with mere signs (such as bank balances and
contracts), we are destroying nature. We are so tied up in our minds,
that we've lost our senses. Time to wake up."
