Vibration, Consciousness, Conscience by Audra Skuodas Image: Title Page: Nietsche could not foresee the ideological result of his ideas where they were mis-understood and mis-represented "If our civilization is not to produce greater holocausts our writers, artists will have to become something more than merely mirrors of it's violence and disintegration, they, through their own efforts will have to regain the initiative for the human person, and the forces of life, chaining up the demons we have allowed to run loose and releasing angels and minister of grace we have shamefacedly incarcerated . For the writer-artist is still the maker , the creator, not merely a recorder of fact, but above all an interpreter of possibilities. It is intuition of the future that may still give body to a better world to help start our civilization on a fresh cycle of adventure and effort. The writer-artist of our time must find within himself the wholeness that is now lacking in society. He must be capable of interpreting life in all it's dimensions, particularly in the dimension the last century has neglected, restoring reason to the irrational purpose to the drifters, value to the nihilists, hope to these sinking in despair, and a sense of beauty.. . Men have killed God by forgetting him." --Nietzche Vibration, Consciousness, Conscience
