Description

“If we travel today to the West, we renew our lives after their decline, strengthen our senses after their sharp edges have been blunted, and enter a phase in which we learn, reflect, and become accustomed to customs, most of which are good. We should adopt these customs from those who preceded us, stages and stages, because they are the result of inherited knowledge and a successive, far-sighted vision. Everything we see in the West is the work of centuries past, generations who learned and worked… Western civilization is strange in every aspect of its manifestations, because its people have made good use of every force in existence, while we, through our ignorance, have wasted the forces that are most easily utilised. This is their way in every way. It is as if the West has sworn not to ally with the East, and the East only differs from the West, despite its great need for it and its compulsion to adopt from it.”
