Even Death Itself Sometimes Fails

We Have Learned To Say That The Good Must Be Extended To All Of Society Before It Can Be Held Secure By Any One Person Or Any One Class. But We Have Not Yet Learned To Add To That Statement, That Unless All [people] And All Classes Contribute To A Good, We Cannot Even Be Sure That It Is Worth Having.

If In A Democratic Country Nothing Can Be Permanently Achieved Save Through The Masses Of The People, It Will Be Impossible To Establish A Higher Political Life Than The People Themselves Crave.

As Democracy Modifies Our Conception Of Life, It Constantly Raises The Value And Function Of Each Member Of The Community, However Humble He May Be.

The Good We Secure For Ourselves Is Precarious And Uncertain Until It Is Secured For All Of Us And Incorporated Into Our Common Life.

Pliable Human Nature Is Relentlessly Pressed Upon By Its Physical Environment.
