Summary

This quote highlights the importance of action and implementation in turning ideas into reality. Merely having brilliant ideas is insufficient if they are not put into practice by individuals who possess both competence and courage. Ideas need to be brought to life by people who are not only intellectually capable but also willing to take risks and strive for success. Without the collaboration of skilled and fearless individuals, ideas remain ethereal concepts rather than valuable contributions to progress.

Such is the remorseless progression of human society, shedding lives and souls as it goes on its way. It is an ocean into which men sink who have been cast out by the law and consigned, with help most cruelly withheld, to moral death.

Who shall revive it?
