It is not a question of which viewpoints are positive and which are negative; merely that of the positive some have a higher priority than others, which mean that some have a lesser positive value.

Unity over progress, except that progress that transcends unity; morality over unity and the good of the whole subservient to the good of the part.  Whether the subjective has more value than the objective is a silly, silly question, for of things differing in kind no relative comparison may be made.  Yet between things differing in kind, differing as the image differs from its principle, a relation exists.  Whether the subjective has more value than the objective becomes, then, the only question, for if the creature is to have any value toward the creator, he must know himself as much as he must know his creator.

I think people would be grateful if I stuck to tire reviews.  Sorry.
