“I believe that a desirable future depends on our deliberately choosing a life of action over a life of consumption, on our engendering a lifestyle which will enable us to be spontaneous, independent, yet related to each other, rather than maintaining a lifestyle which only allows to make and unmake, produce and consume - a style of life which is merely a way station on the road to the depletion and pollution of the environment. The future depends more upon our choice of institutions which support a life of action than on our developing new ideologies and technologies.” WayBelieveActionChoicesI BelieveTechnologySupportEnvironmentStyleProduceDependsIndependentInstitutionsLifestyleIdeologyDevelopingRelatedStationsPollutionConsumptionConsumerismSpontaneousDesirableMaintainingOverconsumptionOur ChoicesBe Spontaneous Author:Ivan Illich
“There are conservative values where certain lifestyles are imposed and everybody should have 2.4 children and a dog and a cat and a house and you should feel like God and you should believe in God and you should be a capitalist. I don't buy any of that.” FeelsShouldBelieveChildrenCertainValuesHouseDogCatShould HaveConservativeLifestyleBelieve In GodCapitalistConservative Values Author:Steve Coogan
