Book excerpt: Excerpt from Histoire Illustree de la Guerre de 1914, Vol. 1 On cherchera dans des incidents de detail plus ou moins importants la cause et les ori gines de cette crise terrible: elles tiennent surtout a des raisons permanentes, qui tou chent a l'essence de la nature humaine. Le succes produit l'orgueil, et l'orgueil la violence. D'autre part, la richesse produit la corruption, et la corruption enerve les peuples. Par les deux voies, l'homme retourne a la barbarie originelle. Seuls, des evenements tragiques peuvent le corriger et le purifier.
