We are in a great night of the world. The thing is to know if we shall wake up to-morrow. We have only one succor we know of what the night is made.

Utopias are presented for our inspection as a critique of the human state. If they are to be treated as anything but trivial exercises of the imagination. I suggest there is a simple test we can apply. We must forget the whole paraphernalia of social description, demonstration, expostulation, approbation, condemnation. We have to say to ourselves, ''How would I myself live in this proposed society? How long would it be before I went stark staring mad?''
William Golding
I'm the cream Of the great utopia dream. And you're in the gleam In the depths of your banker's spleen.
