Pushing to the Front

CHAPTER X
16/25

The art of dishing up the wrong so as to make it look and taste like the right has never been more extensively cultivated than in our day.

An eminent scientist has said that a man could soon reason himself out of the instinct of decency if he would only take pains and work hard enough.

So when a doubtful but attractive future is placed before one, there is a great temptation to juggle with the wrong until it seems the right.

Yet any aim that is immoral carries in itself the germ of certain failure, in the real sense of the word--failure that is physical and spiritual.
There is no doubt that every person has a special adaptation for his own peculiar part in life.
