Summary

This quote highlights the emergence of a new kind of individual in Europe under Syndicalism and Fascism. Unlike previous ideologies, this individual does not feel the need to justify or prove their opinions. Instead, they assert their beliefs with a determination to impose them upon others. This signifies a shift away from reasoned discourse and an increasing embrace of authoritarian ideologies where subjective opinions are enforced without question. It emphasizes the rise of individuals who prioritize power over rationality, often resulting in the suppression of alternative viewpoints.

That bodies should be lent us, while they can afford us pleasure, assist us in acquiring knowledge, or doing good to our fellow creatures, is a kind and benevolent act of God - when they become unfit for these purposes and afford us pain instead of pleasure-instead of an aid, become an encumbrance and answer none of the intentions for which they were given, it is equally kind and benevolent that a way is provided by which we may get rid of them. Death is that way.
