Summary

This quote emphasizes that the revolutionary changes that humanity has encountered throughout history have primarily focused on external aspects such as agriculture, science, industry, and politics. It suggests that while these changes have been significant, they have not fully recognized or addressed the internal aspects of human existence.

We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it

We are afraid that Heaven is a bribe, and that if we make it our goal we shall no longer be disinterested. It is not so. Heaven offers nothing that the mercenary soul can desire. It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to. There are rewards that do not sully motives. A man's love for a woman is not mercenary because he wants to marry her, nor his love for poetry mercenary because he wants to read it, nor his love of exercise less disinterested because he wants to run and leap and walk. Love, by definition, seeks to enjoy its object.
