Nobody can be saved from anything, unless they save themselves.  It is hopeless doing things for people - it is often very dangerous indeed to do things at all - and the only thing worth doing for the race is to increase its stock of ideas.  Then, if you make available a larger stock, the people are at liberty to help themselves from out of it.  By this process the means of improvement is offered, to be accepted for rejected freely, and there is a faint hope of progress in the course of the millennia.  Such is the business of the philosopher, to open new ideas.  It is not his business to impose them on people.
