Excerpt from Politics and the Moral Law
Very generally a cowardly reluctance to look the fact in the face, and make pro vision for it as one of the unavoidable inconveniences of an imperfect condi tion. People are afraid lest the force of recognized duties should be weakened, by admitting the liability of one duty to be overruled by another, and, though well knowing that this does happen, and not prepared to deny that it some times ought to happen, they prefer to be excused from giving their approba tion beforehand to so unpleasant-looking a fact.
