Walter Gropius Zitate

The intellectual bourgeois of the old Empire - tepid and unimaginative, mentally slow, arrogant, and incorrectly trained - has proven his incapacity to be the bearer of German culture. His benumbed world is now toppled, its spirit is overthrown, and is in the midst of being recast into a new mold.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Das intellektuelle Bourgeois des alten Reiches - lau und einfallslos, geistig langsam, arrogant und falsch ausgebildet - hat seine Unfähigkeit bewiesen, der Träger der deutschen Kultur zu sein. Seine getrübte Welt ist jetzt gestürzt, sein Geist ist gestürzt und befindet sich mitten in der Umformung in eine neue Form.

Now, past middle age, with so many books written I still care about and only a few still in print, I know the feeling of being overlooked.

Now I'm no biologist, but it seems to make a lot of sense that slow lives, as well as being enjoyable, are long lives. One only has to think of the example of the tortoise for proof of this theory from the animal world.

We are eternal beings. We lived as intelligent spirits before this mortal life. We are now living part of eternity. Our mortal birth was not the beginning; death, which faces all of us, is not the end.
