Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



Most people are the victims of suggestion and are easily impressed by (and deceived by) appearances. They confound bigness of size with greatness of soul; they call that nation "great" which has a big empire, often won by ethically dubious methods. A big pack of wolves is not something to admire or respect.
