The moralist who bans passion is not of our time; his place these many years is with the dead.

For we know what happens in a world when those who ban passion have triumphed.

When Love is suppressed Hate takes its place.

The least regulated orgies of Love grow innocent beside the orgies of Hate.

When nations that might well worship one another cut one another's throats, when Cruelty and Self-righteousness and Lying and Injustice and all the Powers of Destruction rule the human heart, the world is devastated, the fibre of the whole organism, of society grows flaccid, and all the ideals of civilisation are debased.
