Without sharing there will never be justice. Without justice there will never be peace. Without peace there is no future for us.

Mankind will soon see that there is no alternative to sharing the produce of the world. Every other method has been tried and failed, and has led inevitably to war, suffering, degradation and misery.

The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom (1980)

In short, the crash will lead to a reordering of priorities.

To be spiritual really means to take in the world as a whole, to think in global terms. This is needed above all at the present time.

There will come a time when humanity will look back on this time as the 'barbarian age'. So far from the possible ideal is the present dying civilization that future men will wonder how, and for so long, were we able to sustain it.

A Master Speaks (1985)
