difficulties are ultimately dependent upon mental conditions which ought to be cleared up with the methods of modern psychology

everywhere insight into old evils, everywhere enthusiasm for new goals, everywhere attention to outside factors, and everywhere negligence of those functions of the mind which are independent of the mere will of the individual.

I break silence in order to convince others that if they were silent, too, our common social hopes and wishes would be nearer to actual fulfilment.
