"Nowadays everybody tells us that what we we need is more belief, a stronger and deeper and more encompassing
faith. A faith in America and in what we are doing. That
may be true in the long run. What we need first and
now is to disillusion ourselves. What ails us most is
not what we have done with America, but what we
have substituted for America. We suffer primarily
not from our vices or our weaknesses, but from
our illusions. We are haunted, not by reality, but
by those images we have put in place of reality."
