March, 1947: Politics & Economics

"Why  does everyone here believe that by all of us thinking of nothing else but the mechanics of living, of history, we will solve all problems? I don't think the American obsession with politics and economics has improved anything. Politics is not the only task there is to do! Everyone must do his own well, and it will influence politics indirectly: the doctor, the psychologist, the social worker, the priest, the poet, the writer, the musician," Anais declares.
