“What I do deny is that you can build any enduring society without some such myst…” — Herbert Read

A man of personality can formulate ideals, but only a man of character can achieve them.

We may be sure that out of the ruins of our capitalist civilization a new religion will emerge, just as Christianity emerged from the ruins of the Roman civilization.

Morality, as has often been pointed out, is antecedent to religion-it even exists in a rudimentary form among animals.

But the further step, by means of which a civilization is given its quality or culture, is only attained by a process of cellular division, in the course of which the individual is differentiated, made distinct from and independent of the parent group.
