AS I pointed out in the previous entry, wherever you find people boasting of their humanitarianism, you find a lack of love and sympathy toward actual human beings. Wherever people are proud of their tolerance, they are noticeably and sometimes cruelly intolerant.

The more universalistic the values, the less particularistic the everyday affections. The utopian crushes the real. The perfect crushes the imperfect. The vanity of abstraction and the illusory goal of paradise on earth devastate bonds of kinship and lasting ties of affection.

Treasure the imperfect. For Utopia seeks to overturn whatever good we have. ‘Humanity’ is the eternal enemy of human beings.
