Their education did little to help them. It was like a half-assembled motorcar; most of the parts were there, but they were not put together. Reformers wished to base it on science and technology, or on sociology and economics, whose importance they saw; if they had had their way, they would have produced a good chassis, but overlooked the need of an engine not to speak of a driver who knew where to go. The real problem lay deeper than science or sociology or politics: it was spiritual.
