“Les primevères et les paysages ont un défaut grave : ils sont gratuits. L'amour de la nature ne fournit de travail à nulle usine.”Le meilleur des mondes
En anglais: "Primroses and landscapes, he pointed out, have one grave defect: they are gratuitous. A love of nature keeps no factories busy. It was decided to abolish the love of nature, at any rate among the lower classes; to abolish the love of nature, but not the tendency to consume transport. For of course it was essential that they should keep on going to the country, even though they hated it."
