Again another wave rises, perhaps bigger than the first, only to fall again, and again to rise, driving onward. Similarly, in the march of events, we may notice the rise and fall; but we generally look towards the rise, forgetting the fall. Both are necessary and both are great. This is the nature of the universe. Whether in the world of our thoughts or in the worlds of our relations, in society or in our spiritual affairs, this same succession of movements, of rises and falls, is going on. Hence, in the march of events, liberal ideals move forward, afterwards to sink down in order to gather strength once more for a new rise and a greater one. The history of nations, also, has been ever like this."
