“The one book that I have loved and have gone back to over and over is a book by Walter Lipman called A Preface to Morals. It was written in the 1920s during the Jazz Age. And he first identifies, not first, but he identifies very powerfully this problem of modern societies that you lose faith in religion and tradition and community and certainty and you don't replace it with anything and it leaves you with a hollowness inside. And it's a wonderful book called A Preface to Morals.”
