The Battle of Ideas

The real battle of life is one of ideas;
it is being fought out by the few against the many;

on the one side is the constructive and creative thought,

on the other side the destructive and negative thought;

the creative thought is dominated by an ideal,
the passive thought is dominated by appearances.

On both sides are men of science,
men of letters, and men of affairs.

On the creative side are men who spend their time in laboratories,
or over microscopes and telescopes,
side by side with the men who dominate the commercial,
political, and scientific world;

on the negative side or men who spend their time investigating law and precedent, men who mistake theology for religion,
statesmen who mistake might for right,
and all the millions who seem to prefer precedent to progress,
who are eternally looking backward instead of forward,
who see only the world without, but know nothing of the world within.

In the last analysis there are but these two classes;
all men (And women.) will have to take their place
on one side or the other;
they will have to go forward, or go back;

There is no standing still in a world where all is motion. ...
