“The great problem before us today is to create a civilisation that does not degenerate under leisure. This can be done only by setting in operation forces making for a culture that recognises. as no civilisation since the fall of Rome has been required to do. that leisure must be a means and not an end; that its value is measured by what we do with it as to whether it lifts or lowers us in the world of spiritual values.” —Dr. Philip Semen.
