Above all else, a clear mind is desirable. Avoid plans. Avoid thoughts. A clear mind is free to act, and to react, faster - faster, efficient, brutal.

There are some things you just don't say. Which would imply that there are some things which you probably shouldn't think. Although, one cannot decide beforehand what one will think, one must wait-and-see with ones thoughts.

The things we mustn't think are those thoughts which, if ever they were manifest, would degrade good social order (undermine good order - disrupt peace).

Good order: good order is something that . . . the conception of, is proportional to the general educational development of a society as a whole.

Is there a "good order" to two-person, or to couples relationships - i.e. a good order to monogamy? It sounds absurd to me to put such a question. However, there exists a very strong custom of "couples integrity".

Now explain what good order means to an individual, considering her/his emotional state in the broadest sense, and separate of any group or culture. Is there good or bad order in the natural state of, say, any one particular mammal or another, considered individually in a natural setting? The cat is one example of a family of animals that has some well-known, solitary/unsocial species.
