To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Senator was entirely wrong. The knave that fails is usually a fool, but the knave that succeeds may be a very intel- ligent man, and his intelligence when unaccompanied by any trace of moral instinct, merely makes him infinitely the most dangerous man that this commu- nity can bring forth ; and the Senator in the remark he made came dangerously near assuming the very dangerous posi- tion that a knave who is sufficiently able is therefore relieved from the odium of knavery.
We ought to admir...e intelligence and ability; but only when the intelligence and ability are controlled and guided by the will to do right. Intelligence and ability divorced from the moral instinct 101 Digitized by Microsoft® the Eighth Commandment merely make the man an infinitely dan- g^erous wild beast whom it is our busi- ness to hunt out of the political life, and, so far as we can, out of the business life, of the community.
It has been finely said that the su- preme task of humanity is to subordi- nate the whole fabric of civilization to the service of the soul.
