Malcolm Muggeridge Quotes
So The Final Conclusion Would Surely Be That Whereas Other Civilizations Have Been Brought Down By Attacks Of Barbarians From Without, Ours Had The Unique Distinction Of Training Its Own Destroyers At Its Own Educational Institutions, And Then Providing Them With Facilities For Propagating Their Destructive Ideology Far And Wide, All At The Public Expense. Thus Did Western Man Decide To Abolish Himself, Creating His Own Boredom Out Of His Own Affluence, His Own Vulnerability Out Of His Own Strength, His Own Impotence Out Of His Own Erotomania, Himself Blowing The Trumpet That Brought The Walls Of His Own City Tumbling Down, And Having Convinced Himself That He Was Too Numerous, Labored With Pill And Scalpel And Syringe To Make Himself Fewer. Until At Last, Having Educated Himself Into Imbecility, And Polluted And Drugged Himself Into Stupefaction, He Keeled Over
a Weary, Battered Old Brontosaurus
and Became Extinct.
