"Truth does not pay homage to any society, ancient or modern. Society has to pay homage to Truth or die. Societies should be moulded upon truth, and truth has not to adjust itself to society. If such a noble truth as unselfishness cannot be practiced in society, it is better for man to give up society and go into the forest. That is the daring man."

- Swami Vivekananda, "The Real Nature of Man" (The Real and The Apparent Man, June 21, 1896, Royal Institute of Painters, London), Jnana Yoga, Complete Works: Vol 2
