But old and time-honoured errors — such as become with every day more glaring and self-evident — stand arrayed in battle-order now, as they did then. Marshalled by blind conservatism, conceit and prejudice, they are constantly on the watch, ready to strangle every truth, which, awakening from its age-long sleep, happens to knock for admission. Such has been the case ever since man became an animal. That this proves in every case ''moral death ''to the revealers, who bring to light any of these old, old truths, is as certain as that it gives {{Style S-Small capitals|life}} and {{Style S-Small capitals|regeneration}} to those who are fit to profit even by the little that is now revealed to them. | But old and time-honoured errors — such as become with every day more glaring and self-evident — stand arrayed in battle-order now, as they did then.
