We want to know about ourselves 
About the fact there is no "society" in our "country" 
About "society" and "people" living in different worlds 
 
Feeling and reason 
What is crucial is "thinking," not "worrying" 
 
Modern people are too "fast" — we breath shallow and quick 
"We" are terrible at being slow and deep
