A Crisis In Civilization.

Do you think human nature has i'm
proved in all these thousands of years !?
Do you think men are really any wiser
or better or stronger than they were
thousands of years ago? Take your
Greek statue, and you have as fine an
expression of the human face as you
can find to-day. Take what has come
down to us of their eloquence, of their
generalship, and you will find them not
inferior to the men of the day. Yet
their civilization persisted, as civiliza-
tons before theirs perished-torn to
pieces by forces generated by the growth
Of iniquity. And the same question is
being presented to us now in this
century as it was presented to them.
We must in some way stop the pro-
gress of this iniquity; we must find
some way of coming back to the natural
plane or we will be overthrow. All
this disquiet which moves the world
means something: it means that the
time is almost here-if it has not al
ready come-when our civilization must
take that move forward or 60 down.
Henry George
