The world without, and that within, such a FOUEIER AST) HIS SOCIAL SYSTEM. 143 man
..., must present a strange and striking con- trast. Around him, poverty, neglect, derision, a settled hostility, or a more humiliating indif- ference ; within, the consciousness of mighty dis- coveries, of truths competent now, and certain ultimately, to transform and electrify mankind. Around him, obstruction and want, perhaps hunger and cold ; within, the deep conviction that he had discovered the means ordained of God for banishing want from the earth, by quadrupling production, diminishing wasteful consumption, renovating and beautifying the earth ; until at last even the polar ices should be dissolved, and a joyous, exhilarating spring- time envelope our planet The reclamation of deserts, of pestilential marshes, of wildernesses, and snow-capped mountains, until all earth shall praise heaven, by comforting and blessing man- kind ; all these, and many more dizzying, are among the ultimate consequences of social reor- ganization anticipated by Fourier.
