The modern habit of saying, "Every man has a different philosophy; this is my philosophy and it suits me" - the habit of saying this is mere weak mindedness.
The modern habit of saying, "Every man has a different philosophy; this is my philosophy and it suits me" — the habit of saying this is mere weak mindedness. A cosmic philosophy is not constructed to fit a man; a cosmic philosophy is constructed to fit a cosmos. A man can no more possess a private religion than he can possess a private sun and moon.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
