In a sense, we can tell a lot about anyone by looking at what books, if any, he reads, at what books are on his shelves. . . . I have always found books to be helpful, yet they must be good books.

At first sight, it seems that something, almost anything, must be done about our situation. But it is the genius of Pieper to see that this activist, busy motion is the wrong starting point. Before we can pretend to do anything about the present, we must know what we are, what the world is, and yes, what God is. Construction of a civilization that knows little or nothing of these deeper realities can only make things worse.
