“communism proved unbiological, a handicap in the struggle for existence; that it gave insufficient stimulus to inventiveness, industry and thrift; and that the failure to reward the more able, and punish the less able, made for a leveling of capacity which was hostile to growth or to successful competition with other groups.”
― Will Durant, Our Oriental Heritage

“Custom gives the same stability to the group that heredity and instinct give to the species, and habit to the individual. It is the routine that keeps men sane; for if there were no grooves along which thought and action might move with unconscious ease, the mind would be perpetually hesitant, and would soon take refuge in lunacy.”
― Will Durant, Our Oriental Heritage

“Day by day thou art making me worthy of thy full acceptance by refusing me ever and anon, saving me from perils of weak, uncertain desire.”
― Rabindranath Tagore, Gitanjali

“custom is the natural selection of those modes of action that have been found most convenient in the experience of the group.”
― Will Durant, Our Oriental Heritage
