I think every individual, and every society, is perfected just in proportion to the combination, and cooperation, of masculine and feminine elements of character.

'Crowd folly', the tendency of humans, under some circumstances, to resemble lemmings, explains much foolish thinking of brilliant men and much foolish behavior - like investment management practices of many foundations represented here today.
