"Materialists bluntly say that through their experimental scientific research they have explained everything and reduced it to general laws. There remained only one insignificant psychic phenomenon which had not been reduced to an explanation based on experiment, but that was delaying us *. Amazing stupidity or rather madness, but with all due respect we can say, they went crazy! Everything that is the basis of life, everything that means life and should be the cornerstone of any study, is left outside in the hope that in the coming days it will be explained by this professor in Berlin or Hamburg. Amazing!

""Materialiștii spun fără înconjur că, prin cercetările lor științifice experimentale, au explicat totul și l-au redus la legile generale. A mai rămas un singur fenomen psihic neînsemnat care n-a fost redus la o explicate bazată pe experiment, dar asta ne tardera pas *. Uimitoare prostie sau mai degrabă nebunie, ba cu tot respectul putem spune, au luat-o razna! Tot ce stă la baza vieții, tot ce înseamnă viață și ar trebui să fie piatră de temelie a oricărui studiu, e lăsat pe dinafară în speranța că zilele următoare va fi explicat de cutare profesor de la Berlin sau Hamburg. Uluitor!"
