  Of course, if you take the satisfactoriness concretely, as something felt by you now, and if,by trurh, you mean truth taken abstractly and verified in the long run, you cannot make them equate,for it is notorious that the temporarily satisfactory is often false.Yet at each and every concrete moment, truth for each man is what that man 'troweth' at that moment with the maximum of satisfaction to himself; and similarly, abstract truth, truth verified by the long run, and abstract satisfactoriness, long—run satisfactoriness, coincide.If,in short, we compare concrete with concrete and abstract with abstract, the true and the satisfactory do mean the same thing.I suspect that a certain muddling of myatters hereabouts is what makes the general philosophic public so impervious to humanism's claims.
  The fundamental fact about our experience is that it is a process of change.For the 'trower' at any moment, truth, like the visible area round a man walking in a fog, or like what George Eliot calls 'the wall of dark seen by small fishes' eyes that pierce a span in the wide Ocean,' is an objective field which the next moment enlarges and of which it is the critic, and which then either suffers alteration or is continued unchanged.
