Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Human nature is but part Of the magnificent tree Of beast nature. Man is linked by every tie Of blood and bone and cell memories with his brethren Of the sea, the jungle, the forest and the fields. The beast is a seeker Of freedom, but a seeker for his own ego alone, and the satisfaction Of his own instincts only. Thus he struggles to a sort Of freedom which makes him the Ishmael of the Universe, everyone's hand against him, as his own hand is against everyone. The human animal has achieved no advance beyond the necessities Of his ancestors, nor freed himself from his bondage to their instincts and automatic reflexes. And so the sociologist, the analyst Of human associations, turns out to be simply the historian and accountant Of slaveries.
