We are living in a period of discipline, of culture
and of civilization, but it is still far off from
being a moral period. One can say that, in the
present condition of humanity, the prosperity increases
with the misery of its inhabitants.
And one might ask if we would not be happier living
in a primitive state, deprived of all our culture of
the present day. For how can one make men happy
without making them moral and good?
