Everything is broken. What the world needs now is Anthroposophy!

 

Broken lines, broken strings
Broken threads, broken springs
Broken idols, broken heads
People sleeping in broken beds
Ain’t no use jiving, ain’t no use joking
Everything is broken

Broken bottles, broken plates
Broken switches, broken gates
Broken dishes, broken parts
Streets are filled with broken hearts
Broken words never meant to be spoken
Everything is broken

Seem like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hit the ground

Broken cutters, broken saws
Broken buckles, broken laws
Broken bodies, broken bones
Broken voices on broken phones
Take a deep breath, feel like you’re chokin'
Everything is broken

Every time you leave and go off someplace
Things fall to pieces in my face

Broken hands on broken ploughs
Broken treaties, broken vows
Broken pipes, broken tools
People bending broken rules
Hound dog howling, bullfrog croaking
Everything is broken

Rudolf Steiner:  "If we feel that what we call Anthroposophy is a necessity in our time and recognize that it must flow into contemporary cultural life and become a ferment in all domains — if we feel that Anthroposophy can become that, wills to become that — then we shall be able to work in the right way. Words, however, are not the best tool with which to do all this; rather you must use your feelings and sensitivities, your purposes, the fundamental principles that you take into yourselves in order to develop your own individual powers."
