“For since the natural inequality of man dooms many of us to poverty or defeat, some supernatural hope may be the sole alternative to despair. Destroy that hope, and class warfare is intensified. Heaven and utopia are buckets in a well; when one goes down, the other goes up; when religion declines, communism grows.”
Will Durant
