Excerpt from Citizenship

Citizenship is of all earthly things to-day the thing most worth while. Perhaps it has always been so.

It is only, however, in our times that this statement could have been made without fear of contradiction. Because it is only now that men and women, for the first time in the history of the world, are, in any great number, beginning to consciously realise the social interdependence of all human beings and, with it, the urgency of placing this realisation upon an ordered basis. Such basis, in the considered opinion of vast and increasing numbers of people in all countries, alone makes possible human advance - scientific, artistic, social - in these days of new horizons and world-concepts.
