If the world be worth winning let us enjoy it, if it is to be despised let us despise it by conviction. But the world is not to be despised but as it is compared with something better.
  Samuel Johnson

en There are few strong new forces in the world today. Man’s civilization is tired, fed up with war, poverty and crime.
Perhaps it is natural that anyone who offered help would also be fought at first. Man is so used to fighting, so used to being fooled.
