Any new thought, especially of a high kind, creates a
disturbance, tries to make a new channel, as it were, in the brain matter, and
that unhinges the system, throws men off their balance.
They are used to
certain surroundings, and have to overcome a huge mass of ancient superstitions,
ancestral superstition, class superstition, city superstition, country
superstition, and behind all, the vast mass of superstition that is innate in
every human being.
