Excerpt #28: keeping up with the times

Do I wish to keep up with the times? No.

My wish simply is to live as fully as I can. In both our work and our leisure, I think, we should be so employed. And in our time this means we must save ourselves from the products that we are asked to buy in order, ultimately, to replace ourselves.

Wendell Berry, “Feminism, the Body, and the Machine” in What Are People For?
