“[T]hose who are placed in positions which demand the surrender of personality, which insist on strict #conformity to definite #political policies and opinions, must deteriorate, must become mechanical, must lose all capacity to give anything really vital. The #world is full of such unfortunate cripples. Their dream is to ‘arrive,’ no matter at what cost. If only we would stop to consider what it means to ‘arrive,’ we would pity the unfortunate victim."
