To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Two men should be wiser than one, and two thousand than two ; nor do I know another so gross fallacy in the records of human stupidity as that excuse for neglect of crime by greatness of cities. As if the first purpose of congregation were not to devise laws and repress crimes ! as if bees and wasps could live honestly in flocks, — men, only in separate dens!— as if it was easy to help one another on the opposite sides of a mountain, and impossible on the opposite sides of a street ! But when t...he men are true and good, and stand shoulder to shoulder, the strength of any nation is in its quantity of life, not in its land nor gold. The more good men a state has, in proportion to its territory, the stronger the state. And as it has been the madness of economists to seek for gold instead of life, so it has been the madness of kings to seek for land instead of life. They want the town on the other side of the river, and seek it at the spear point : it never enters their stupid heads Digitized by VjOOQ IC ATHENA IN THE HEART.
