“The most fatal thing of all is to satisfy a want which is not yet felt,
so that without waiting till the want is present, one anticipates it, likely
also uses stimulants to bring about something which is supposed to be a want,
and then satisfies it. And this is shocking! And yet this is what they do in
the religious sphere, whereby they really are cheating men out of what
constitutes the significance of life, and helping people to waste life.”
