Ultimately man does not accept the praise or blame of his fellows as his sole guide though few escape this influence, but his habitual convictions, controlled by reason, afford him the safest rule.
The moral nature of man has reached its present standard, partly through the advancement of his reasoning powers and consequently of a just public opinion, but especially from his sympathies having been rendered more tender and widely diffused through the effects of habit, example, instruction, and reflection.
We have seen that man incessantly presents individual differences in all parts of his body and in his mental faculties.

 The Observer Comment History man
The Guardian wondered drily if Fukuyama would be writing a sequel to The End of History, the book he had published in 1992, ignoring the several books he had published subsequently on topics ranging from biotechnology to social capital and the market.
When he spoke of history Fukuyama meant the grand tale of human society's evolution of a cultural - and thus political and economic - system that matches our species' collective aspirations and can fulfil them.
The fact that his book, unlike most works by American foreign policy specialists, had been a global bestseller, commanding a $400,000 advance, hardly helped.

My first acquaintance with Bradbury - at least literary acquaintance - was when The History Man was published.
