Prager offers many wise mottoes, but here is one of great significance.
1.: "Most people are cowards, or sheep."
Their willingness to go along with whatever is happening is the source of building evil in the world. People are afraid, too slavishly deferential and obedient to authority to object to its wrongdoing and bad practices. They are easily intimidated, unwilling to oppose wicked ways practiced by the group that they belong to.
Only as individuators and individual-livers, will people build a strong enough, a wise enough and kind enough soul, centered in serving the Good Spirits to live courageous lives, not matter how the world treats them. If society wants the majority of citizens to live as ethical, stand-tall-when-it-counts, ethical heroes, it must raise them and train them as individuators.
