We Must Raise And Train An Army

Independence Of Mind Or Strength Of Character Is Rarely Found Among Those Who Cannot Be Confident That They Will Make Their Way By Their Own Effort.... Indeed, When Security Is Understood In Too Absolute A Sense, The General Striving For It, Far From Increasing The Chances Of Freedom, Becomes The Greatest Threat To It.

The Idea That Human Kind Can Shape The World According To Wish Is What I Call The Fatal Conceit

The Progress Of The Natural Sciences In Modern Times Has Of Course So Much Exceeded All Expectations That Any Suggestion That There May Be Some Limits To It Is Bound To Arouse Suspicion.

This Is The Constitutional Limitation Of Man's Knowledge And Interests, The Fact That He Cannot Know More Than A Tiny Part Of The Whole Of Society And That Therefore All That Can Enter Into His Motives Are The Immediate Effects Which His Actions Will Have In The Sphere He Knows.

We Have Indeed At The Moment Little Cause For Pride: As A Profession We Have Made A Mess Of Things.
