ome too much of a nuisance, liquidated.
哲学告诉我们要对那些不证自明的事情进行怀疑。而宣传家们却恰恰相反，他们教我们要无条件的接受这些本应该受到质疑东西。因此他们是始终如一的教条主义分子，说的话都是不允许他人质疑的。在他们的世界里，只存在邪恶的黑色和崇高的白色而没有处于中间的灰色。他们从不承认自己有一点点的错误，也决不会认为别人有部分是对的，更不会和对手讲道理，只会用蛮力对对手进行攻击压制，一旦他们感到这些反对者太过讨厌就把这些人终结了。 Virtue and intelligence belong to human beings as individuals freely associating with other individuals in small groups. So do sin and stupidity. But the subhuman mindlessness to which the demagogue makes his appeal, the moral imbecility on which he relies when he goads his victims into action, are characteristic not of men and women as individuals, but of men and women in masses. Mindlessness and moral idiocy are not characteristically human attributes; they are symptoms of herd-poisoning. In all the world's higher religions, salvation and enlightenment are for individuals. The kingdom of heaven is within the mind of a person, not within the collective mindlessness of a crowd. 在小组织里，人与人作为个体而进行自由交往时美德和智慧就会成为他们个人的特点，罪孽和愚钝也是一样。但是煽动分子经常依靠的低人类的盲目和他们进行煽动时所凭借的被煽动者的道德障碍是人在群体里表现的特征而不是人本身的特征。盲目和道德障碍不是人的本性，而是被药物麻醉后的症状。在世界所有有更高宗教信仰的地区，超度和启蒙的对象都是个人。因知道上帝而获得的安详和快乐只会存在于个人的心里，而不是集体无知的群体里。 In an age of accelerating over-population, of accelerating over-organization and ever more efficient means of mass communication, how can we preserve the integrity and reassert the value of the human individual? This is a question that can still be asked and perhaps effectively answered. A generation from now it may be too late to find an answer and perhaps impossible, in the stifling collective climate of that future time, even to ask the question.
在一个人口和社会组织急剧膨胀以及公众交流方式前所未有多的年代，我们要如何保护人类个体的完整性，重申人类个体的价值呢？这是一个仍需解答的也是一直被深刻探询的问题。也许等到下一代即使找到答案也为时过晚，也许在那样一个集体气候极为浓重的年代就是连问这个问题也变的不可能了。
在这个人口不断膨胀，组织不断增多，大众交流越来越便利时代，个人应该如何保持正直，坚定个人信仰？这个问题仍然悬而未决，或许有人提出了有效的回答。或许一代人解决不了，或许在将来令人窒息的大众氛围下这种问题都不能提出来。
