' New Values '...


The complete acceptance of philosophy involves a complete reordering of a man's life.

His conduct will be motivated by new purposes which will themselves be the result of his new values.

He will stop acting impulsively and start acting rationally.

But in actual practice we find that the acceptance of philosophy is never so complete as this.

The individuals will bring it into a part of life but not into the whole of their lives.

It is only gradually absorbed and the ideals which are sought to be realized are only gradually set up.
