Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Question of the Hour: A Survey of the Position and Influence of the Catholic Church in the United States

As it is with individuals striving after distinction, so it is with families, society, and the State; our importance, our prestige comes from our common ancestry. No matter what our station in life the most of us ruminate upon the distinction accruing to our personality by reason of our distinguished fore fathers.

We lay the flattering unction to our hearts that we are not as other men; we at least have something to boast of. But in a few years the important man is gathered to his ancestors and disappears in the gloom. His distinguished dust becomes top-soil, mortar or mud. Thus it is that the past buries the past and with it a host of individuals; only the very distinguished survive in history; and even in history the person ality is lost. We read of great historical personages but whether they are white or black, tall or short, wicked or virtuous never occurs to us. They are for the most part figures, phantasms, images of men and women; and some of them very ordinary at that. We might as well call them by numbers or the letters of the alphabet; they count for nothing personally. They are simply used by the historian to illustrate epochs, revolutions and the great events of history.
