The high breeding of animals is by selection, and by an extreme care for excellence. Otherwise, if this principle were not followed, not merely in breeding stock, but in developing plants, we should drop back to wild conditions and nomad life. Great men are inevitably individualists in their development, and communists in providing some great good for society in...
