In Heaven an angel is nobody in particular. The mob has many heads but no brains. A myth is a fixed way of looking at the world which cannot be destroyed because, looked at through the myth, all evidence supports that myth. Insanity in individuals is rare - but in groups, parties, nations, and epochs, it is the rule. Every crowd has a silver lining. When a hundred men stand together, each of them loses his mind and gets another one. Wherever there is a crowd there is untruth. The time when, most of all, you should withdraw into yourself is when you are forced to be in a crowd. You cannot make a man by standing a sheep on its hind legs. But by standing a flock of sheep in that position you can make a crowd of men. The average man's opinions are much less foolish than they would be if he thought for himself. |
