....Well I will elect my neighbour as he is a moral, learned, ethical individual and his heart and mind in right place....
....But then he does not want to be an MP...!...In fact he was rather annoyed when I suggested that he should try to get elected as an MP....!
Arnold Toynbee wrote about the decay of civilisations........
He argues that the breakdown of civilizations is not caused by loss of control over the environment, over the human environment, or attacks from outside. Rather, it comes from the deterioration of the "Creative Minority," which eventually ceases to be creative and degenerates into merely a "Dominant Minority" (who forces the majority to obey without meriting obedience). He argues that creative minorities deteriorate due to a worship of their "former self," by which they become prideful, and fail to adequately address the next challenge they face.
