One must be a thoroughly civilized savage either to thrive in a city or to relish application of the polishing force of social morality.  Lose the inner iron of savagery, and one becomes a servant, not in posture (as we all must often be) but in essence.  Let slip the clothing of civilization and one is revealed as a poorly beast, glabrous and limp.
