There are getting to be the awfullest lot of moral subjects that one can't talk about generally, aren't there?
Eugenics and sex hygiene and all these plays and books with a moral purpose, you know.
Of course lots of people DO talk about them generally. I did myself for quite a while. And then another girl and I got some books and studied up what the things we had been talking of really were and it shocked us horribly!
Mamma has been trying to get me to give up the moral uplift entirely, but you've just simply GOT to talk it or be out of date.
Of course the whole thing depends upon whether you are a serious thinker — if you're sincere, REALLY sincere, you can take up anything and get good out of it.
The loveliest man talked to us last night — to our
Little Group of Advanced Thinkers, you know.
He said the curse of the age and the country was superficiality. People aren't thorough, you know.
I've noticed that myself and I agree with him. If one is going to take things up and show a serious interest in them one must not limit one's self to a few phases.
One must be broad. One must be thorough.
One must cover the whole field of thought.
