"There is no right to any behavior that seeks to build a way of life and an agenda outside the human order. For man, the things and actions of the world have meaning only as long as they seek to influence men and interact with the human world. This cooperation can be direct or indirect. But no one has the right to live for his own sake, indeed, he has no right even to create.

Semmiféle magatartás nem jogosult, mely az emberi renden kívül akar felépíteni egyfajta életrendet és napirendet. Az ember számára a világ dolgainak és a cselekedeteknek addig van csak értelmük, amíg hatni akarnak az emberekre, s együttműködnek az emberi világgal. Ez az együttműködés lehet közvetlen és lehet közvetett. De saját érdekből senkinek nincs joga élni, igen, még alkotni sincs joga.

Nu există niciun drept la niciun comportament care urmărește să construiască un mod de viață și o agendă în afara ordinii umane. Pentru om, lucrurile și acțiunile lumii au sens doar atâta timp cât încearcă să influențeze oamenii și să interacționeze cu lumea umană. Această cooperare poate fi directă sau indirectă. Dar nimeni nu are dreptul de a trăi de dragul său, ba chiar nu are dreptul nici măcar de a crea.
