Democracy: the Factory of Cowards

One of the most detestable side effects of a democratic society is the establishment of the veiled judgment that if the many are against one, the many are right. There is no more efficient process for a factory of cowards! From the moment a child is taught that to assert his opinion or will over that of another, it is enough to convince a third party to support it, he learns to operate cowardice—knowing its practical advantages over honor, an essentially individual virtue. If we think of whole generations brought up in this way, that’s the end!
