The Shadow of the Cathedral

CHAPTER IX
28/52

The day on which our ancestors cared for the sick and wounded, instead of abandoning them as all animals had previously done; on which the first seed was planted, the first arrow shot, brought nature face to face with the greatest of her revolutions.

Only one in the future will be able to equal it; if man in remote times was able to free his body, now he requires the great revolution to free his mind.

The races who go furthest in their intellectual development will be the ultimate survivors; they will be masters of the earth, destroying all others.
The least wise in those days will probably be far superior to the most cultivated intellects of the present times.

Each individual will find his happiness in the happiness of his fellows, and no one will try to exercise compulsion on his neighbour.

No laws or penalties will exist, and voluntary associations will supply through the influence of reason the present power of authority.
