In August 2018 we were on or way back from our holidays in Gascogne and had a two-days-stay in the south of Burgundy. I just drove around and found this junkyard and workshop in the middle of nowhere. The owner guided me and told me many interesting stories of the wrecks there. it was a challenge, me barely speaking french, he absolutely no english or german. He was very friendly and we laughed a lot. And: Who can name all the cars?

Modern economists are used to measuring the "standard of living" by the amount of annual consumption, assuming all the time that a man who consumes more is "better off" than a man who consumes less.... Since consumption is merely a means to human well-being, the aim should be to obtain the maximum of well-being with the minimum of consumption... The less toil there is, the more time and strength is left for artistic creativity. Modern economics, on the other hand, considers consumption to be the sole end and purpose of all economic activity.
-- E. F. Schumacher (Small Is Beautiful)

The world of A.D. 2014 will have few routine jobs that cannot be done better by some machine than by any human being. Mankind will therefore have become largely a race of machine tenders. All high-school students will be taught the fundamentals of computer technology and will be trained to perfection in the use of the computer languages. Mankind will suffer badly from the disease of boredom, a disease spreading more widely each year and growing in intensity. This will have serious mental, emotional and sociological consequences, and I dare say that psychiatry will be far and away the most important medical specialty in 2014.
-- Isaac Asimov (NY Times 1964)

The evil that is in the world always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence, if they lack understanding.... The most incorrigible vice being that of an ignorance that fancies it knows everything and therefore claims for itself the right to kill. The soul of the murderer is blind; and there can be no true goodness nor true love without the utmost clear-sightedness.
-- Albert Camus
