Tendency: The Effect of Trend and Drift in the Development of Life (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Tendency: The Effect of Trend and Drift in the Development of Life

Man is more like God than anything else in the world. The making of the future world is man's business, but man himself is, as yet, in the mak ing; and the kind of world he is to make will depend upon the kind of man he becomes.

The value of any particular civilization or the eminence of any age of the world depends upon where it finds man in the progress of his develop ment. No civilization can be great whose men are inferior, and no age can be illustrious whose manhood is tame.
