Summary

This quote highlights a general ideological difference between liberals and conservatives. It suggests that liberals often believe that societal structures and opportunities play a significant role in determining an individual's success. They may argue for policies aimed at addressing systemic inequalities and providing support to those in need. On the other hand, conservatives tend to emphasize personal responsibility and self-reliance, believing that an individual's success primarily depends on their own efforts and the support of their family. This viewpoint may lead conservatives to advocate for individual freedom and limited government intervention.

Nature is pitiless; she never withdraws her flowers, her music, her fragrance and her sunlight, from before human cruelty or suffering. She overwhelms man by the contrast between divine beauty and social hideousness. She spares him nothing of her loveliness, neither wing or butterfly, nor song of bird; in the midst of murder, vengeance, barbarism, he must feel himself watched by holy things; he cannot escape the immense reproach of universal nature and the implacable serenity of the sky. The deformity of human laws is forced to exhibit itself naked amidst the dazzling rays of eternal beauty. Man breaks and destroys; man lays waste; man kills; but the summer remains summer; the lily remains the lily; and the star remains the star....As though it said to man, 'Behold my work. and yours.
