Because [man] can never explain [his] actions by reference to a given immutable
nature... there is no human nature: man conceives himself. In our newly created society, shifting
the blame to human nature will not suffice. The people of Halcyon will have to realize that they
are responsible for everything they do. This is critical element of the Halcyonic culture: taking
responsibility.
