Suicide and Civilization

We find that suicides figure most in
the best countries, where culture and
learning exist. Where there is the
highest civilization there is the most
suicide. Is civilization. then, a curse,
and is it false that knowledge is pow
er? No! it is simply this, that with
the higher power there is more danger
Of misuse Of it. And with the nice
delicacy and higher sensitiyeness and
the feelings that education refnes
there is greater pain, and there is no
more moral strength, as a usual thing,
to bear it. It is that the shame and
remorse of a cultured mind will not
tolerate what Ignorance and depravity
would bear Suicide, along with in
sanity, advanced with the advance of
culture and education. It is the price
of civilization. 1t is the cost of pro-
gress. Rev. M. st. g. Wright.
