Excerpt from The Great Opportunity
The last few years have witnessed changes of thought and practice which in more normal times would only gradually have been evolved in half a century. There is hardly a corner of life, public or private, into which has not penetrated the imperious summons of war. We are still standing, as it were, too close to the picture to judge truly of all that the war has painted upon the canvas. We need time and distance to gain correct perspective. Moreover, the painting is still incomplete. Yet, making the necessary allowance for unfinished work, it is certain that refusal or inability to recognise the forces that are involved can only lead to unreality and error.
The war has been a stern critic and reformer of modes of thought and ways of life.
