Once Protagoras said man was the measure of all things
and John Medaille, with his "esprit de finesse," says man is not a commodity
he is not a work force and he denounces Hume
because, with Hume, "accounting" started to be the measure of man
and our friend John Medaille says that man
man is unique, he is a person with a goal and a direction
and it would be a pity to mutilate him
with the idea of the "individual"
Tonight I will not introduce a book to you
I salute a long awaited encounter...
Mr.Ovidiu Hurduzeu might be like that magnetic stone of Herakles
Socrates did talk about it, about its fantastic magnetism
"Be like that extraordinary magnetic stone"! Socrates said, "each iron ring attracts
and holds another ring, and another ring... and all rings will come to you"
And this book, the anthology "A Treia Forta. Economia libertatii:Renasterea Romaniei profunde"
this book is just the magnetic stone of Herakles
The editors, Mr. John Medaille and Mr. Ovidiu Hurduzeu
are like that magnetic stone: they attracted some "iron rings"
they attracted some mostly innovative minds
brilliant minds from America, England, Italy and Romania
and from Romania, two of them are Ovidiu Hurduzeu and Mircea Platon
