NOT ONE ORIGINAL IDEA CROSSES ANYONE'S BRAINS - YOU ARE IN ANY WAY REMOVED FROM THE COMMON RUN OF MEN !


There is no hope for our nation. Not one original idea crosses anyone's brains, all fighting over the same old, threadbare rug — that Ramakrishna Paramahamsa was such and such — and cock-and-bull stories — stories having neither head nor tail. My God! Won't you do something to show that you are in any way removed from the common run of men!
