The Religion of Solidarity Quotes

“sentimental love of the beautiful and sublime in nature, the charm which mountains, sea, and landscape so potently exercise upon the modern mind through a subtle sense of sympathy, is a comparatively modern and recent growth of the
human mind. The ancients knew, or at least say, nothing of it. . . . It is almost
within a century, in fact, that this susceptibility of the soul seems to have been developed. . . . I am sure that much of the unrest and reaching out after the infinite, which is the peculiar characteristic of this age, is the result of this new
sense”
― Edward Bellamy, The Religion of Solidarity
