He cannot go back to the prehuman state of harmony with nature, and he does not know where he will arrive if he goes forward. Man's existential contradiction results in a state of constant disequilibrium. This disequilibrium distinguishes him from the animal, which lives, as it were, in harmony with nature.

    "Theory of Reflexivity". George Soros' speech at the MIT Department of Economics World Economy Laboratory Conference in Washington, D.C., www.valuewalk.com. April 26, 1994.

  • Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve.
