unhinged 'the man of the east cannot take americans seriously because they have never undergone the experiences that teach mean how relative their judgements and thinking habits are. their resultant lack of imagination is appalling. because they were born and raised in a given social order and in a given system of values, they believe that any other oder must be 'unnatural,' and that it cannot last because it is incompatible with human nature. but even they may one day know fire, hunger, and the sword.' czeslaw_milosz 180905
