        "Despite widely prevalent opinion to the contrary,
the human race is not a blank tablet on which privileged
arbiters of human affairs can freely inscribe their own
wishes.
        The springs of the spirit rise up where they will,
as they will.  They will not indefinitely be suppressed by
the detritus of contemporary society.
        It no longer requires prophetic insight to
appreciate that the opening years of the new century will
see the release of energies and aspirations infinitely more
potent than the accumulated routines, falsities, and
addictions that have so long blocked their expression."
