When our society, in its time of upheaval in standards and values, can give us no clear picture of “what we are and what we ought to be,” as Matthew Arnold puts it, we are thrown back on the search for ourselves.
“Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual. Anyone who either cannot lead the common life or is so self-sufficient as not to need to, and therefore does not partake of society, is either a beast or a god. ”
