Synopsis
Excerpt from The Normal Life
We shall never find ourselves in that home of the ideal, of which Bernard Shaw writes so eloquently,* where we escape the tyranny of the flesh; where there are no social questions, no political questions, no religious questions - best Of all, perhaps, no sanitary questions; where we call our appearance beauty, our emotions love, our sentiments heroism, our aspirations virtue, just as we did on earth but where there are no hard facts to contradict us.
