"I suspect that Lord Finkle-McGraw, being an intelligent man, sees 
through all of the hypocrisy in his society, but upholds its principles anyway, 
because that is what is best in the long run. And I suspect that he has been 
worrying about how best to inculcate this stance in young people who cannot 
understand, as he does, its historical antecedents—which might explain 
why he has taken an interest in me. The Primer may have been Finkle-McGraw's 
idea to begin with—a first attempt to go about this 
systematically."
