ABSTRACT
The course we have thus far been following, wherein we find a use for each innate impulse,—can we pursue it also with regard to anger and pugnacity? Does not the recommendation to uproot the poisonous thing seem now less foolish than when we had in mind an impulse like that of good-will? Do we not ourselves feel something of that distrust which runs like an undertone in most of our accepted moral thought and effort, not in the Orient alone, but in our farthest West ?—a distrust which stands in strong contrast to the welcome given to native friendliness.
