Science so far has had far too much to do with the things of sense and of matter, and the things of the spirit have been by-passed.

Nazism ... destroys the very soul of our civilization ... I have not taken the same grave view of Bolshevism, for it never was clear to me that Bolshevism, in spite of its brutalities and cruelties, really threatened the essentials of our ethical civilization.
