Annotation by Mary Brown: Sage Holter: Poet and pupil of Orage. Allan wrote the preface to her book The ABC of Social Credit.
I have been reading the autobiography of Albert Schweitzer. I have always admired him and have received no little help from him; in fact I believe that he is one of the few in whom the data for individual contemplativeness have not quite atrophied. What he calls the Epilogue of his book is extremely searching. He sums up his philosophy as Reverence for Life; I should say reverence for individuality because life without individuality is mere mechanical existence. His position on the life of Jesus and Paul does not follow traditional orthodoxy; I have the temerity to think that he might have reached somewhat different conclusions had he understood certain cosmic truths. I was particularly pleased with his approach to the problem of the Lord's Supper. The autobiography revivified all these old things for me.
