Summary

This quote suggests that any object or person in motion must first reach the midpoint of its journey before finally reaching its destination. It implies that progress and success often involve a phased approach, where reaching intermediate milestones is necessary in order to ultimately achieve the desired end result. This can be seen as a reminder to acknowledge and appreciate each step of the process, as reaching halfway can be seen as a significant accomplishment on its own.

The American city should be a collection of communities where every member has a right to belong. It should be a place where every man feels safe on his streets and in the house of his friends. It should be a place where each individuals dignity and self-respect is strengthened by the respect and affection of his neighbors. It should be a place where each of us can find the satisfaction and warmth which comes from being a member of the community of man. This is what man sought at the dawn of civilization. It is what we seek today.

Excluded by my birth and tastes from the social order, I was not aware of its diversity. Nothing in the world was irrelevant: the stars on a general's sleeve, the stock-market quotations, the olive harvest, the style of the judiciary, the wheat exchange, flower-beds. Nothing. This order, fearful and feared, whose details were all inter-related, had a meaning: my exile.
