Quote by Wass Albert
English (Source)
Man roams the world like a restless wild animal, searching for something. But as soon as he finds it, he wants to take advantage of it, and in doing so, he spoils things. Because the world is not meant to benefit anyone. The world is meant to be beautiful, peaceful, good. To be able to live in it, with effort, but without benefit. Because the meaning of life is beauty. And profit is the most useless word ever invented by man. Today, however, he is so used to it that when he sees something beautiful, he immediately thinks: what could I use this for? And that is why what he builds with such a goal will soon fall down. Most of the time, it is taken down by another person, who is jealous of the benefit, and nothing remains in its place, only a patch of nettles: the eternal mark of a person.
