The crisis of our times is not the rise of fascism, nor is it global warming. The fundamental crisis is mental poverty.

Mental wealth is not the accumulation of information, any more than physical wealth be the accumulation of body mass. Mental and physical wealth is the accumulation of ability.

Physical poverty is cultivated with candy and armchairs. Mental poverty is cultivated by social media and push-button solutions.

No one wants a future engineered by mental paupers.
