“To try to reform all the power structures at once would leave us with
no power structure to use in our project. In any case, we will be able to see that
absolute moral renewal could be attempted only by an absolute power
and that a tyrannous force such as this must destroy
the whole moral life of man, not renew it.”
― Michael Polanyi, philosopher,
who died on this day 1976.
