More From Francois Fenelon

There are two cardinal human sins out of which all others derive, deviate, and dissipate: impatience and lassitude (or perhaps nonchalance). on account of impatience they are driven out of paradise; on account of lassitude or nonchalance they do not return. perhaps, however, only one main sense of sin is given: impatience. on account of impatience they are driven out, on account of impatience they do not turn back.
Two Nonchalance Paradise
There are two main human sins from which all the others derive: impatience and indolence. it was because of impatience that they were expelled from paradise; it is because of indolence that they do not return. yet perhaps there is only one major sin: impatience. because of impatience they were expelled, because of impatience they do not return.

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.

Private enterprise is ceasing to be free enterprise. private enterprise, indeed, became too private. it became privileged enterprise, not free enterprise.

Truth is found neither in marxism nor in traditional capitalism. each represents a partial truth. historically capitalism failed to see the truth in collective enterprise, and marxism failed to see the truth in individual enterprise. nineteenth century capitalism failed to see that life is social and marxism failed and still fails to see that life is individual and personal. the kingdom of god is neither the thesis of individual enterprise nor the antithesis of collective enterprise, but a synthesis which reconciles the truths of both.

When you delve deep enough, you find that practically every great fortune and great enterprise in america have sprung from the courageous enterprise of some individual. it was commodore vanderbilt's enterprise in switching first from running a ferryboat to running other ships, and then, when he was well along in years, his enterprise in switching into railroading, that created what was to become one of the most notable fortunes in the history of the world.

.......the poor of the world cannot be made rich by redistribution of wealth. poverty can't be eliminated by punishing people who've escaped poverty, taking their money and giving it as a reward to people who have failed to escape. economic leveling doesn't work. whether we call it marxism, progressive reform, or clintonomics, the result is the same slide into the stygian pit. communists worship satan; socialists think perdition is a good system run by bad men; and liberals want us to go to hell because it's warm there in the winter.
