On the record
It is a very pleasant subject of reflection to me that the riveting effect of companionship in a struggle like this, does not pass away with the struggle itself but abides.

How should we look in the face of the civilised world if we had so turned our back upon our duty and sovereign task?
We ought to be able to separate in thought the question of the grounds and evidence for a given dogma being true, from the distinct and purely historic question of the social and intellectual conditions which made men accept it for true.
I think any man who lays down a firm proposition that all is well, or any man who says that all is ill--either of those two men is probably wrong.
Yet they had certainly no less value and truth than they ever had, and perhaps were more needed than ever in face of the present chaos of opinion.
