Quote from My Awakening

"In truth, an incredibly harsh environment over many thousands of years is precisely what made our people what we are. Before civilization, Nature pitilessly killed those individuals and groups who did not have the genetic fitness to survive. Over thousands of generations Nature gradually elevated Western man until he finally broke the bounds of his environment and literally created a new one called civilization. Its creation brought about both his greatness as expressed in its organization, form, and beauty, but also the seeds of his downfall, for civilization begins a process that chips away at the best of genes."
