Excerpt from Health and Social Progress
Roughly speaking, two forms of answers have been given - that of the pessimist and that of the Optimist. Among the pessimists we may reckon all those whose profession or attitude compels or inclines them to look backward. They have paid a heavy price for doing so, Since no one can look into the past constantly without getting a wry neck and having his thought twisted. These people gloomily predict an increasingly more severe struggle, since, if it is only with the utmost diffity that the present population maintains itself, what must happen if the population is nearly three times as large? Civiliza tion will be doomed, or be confined to a few favored spots; anarchy will prevail, and the second state of man kind will be infinitely worse than the first, because men have learned how to do more harm than ever before.
