The days of idealism and superstition are over. We live in a time of science and hard common sense...

Unfortunately, it wasn't true in 1909, and still not true at all today




Did you miss the quotes?


I don't know if it's a browser issue or something else, but I actually don't see any quotation marks, or italics, or anything else. I spent a good while figuring out where one of the quotes ended.


Same here. No actual quotes or other indication of quoted text, but context was enough to figure out when the quote began and ended.


sorry about that, but it appears in italic for me. with quotes: "The days of idealism and superstition are over. We live in a time of science and hard common sense..."
