«The puritanical potentialities of science have never been forecast. If it evolves a body of organized rites, and is established as a religion, hierarchically organized, things more than anything else will be done in the name of ''decency'.'

Author: Wyndham Lewis (Artist) | Keywords: attended, coarse, consequent, established religion, evolves, fume, fumes, hierarchically, liquors, organized religion, puritanical, rites, taint, tobacco
