On the other hand, in proportion as it becomes more manifest that the productions of manufactures are by so much the cheaper and better as the manufacture is larger and the amount of capital employed more considerable, wealthy and educated men come forward to embark in manufactures which were heretofore abandoned to poor or ignorant handicraftsmen.

The magnitude of the efforts required, and the importance of the results to be obtained, attract them.

Thus at the very time at which the science of manufactures lowers the class of workmen, it raises the class of masters.
Whereas the workman concentrates his faculties more and more upon the study of a single detail, the master surveys a more extensive whole, and the mind of the latter is enlarged in proportion as that of the former is narrowed.

In a short time the one will require nothing but physical strength without intelligence; the other stands in need of science, and almost of genius, to insure success.

This man resembles more and more the administrator of a vast empire--that man, a brute.
