“Civilization requires confidence, confidence in the society in which one lives, belief in its philosophy, belief in its laws,…” The truth is “however complex and solid it seems,” civilization is “actually quite fragile, it can be destroyed.” Kenneth Clark, from “The Skin of Our Teeth” in his 13-part series Civilisation
