As long as men are free to ask what they must, free to say what they think, free to think what they will, freedom can never be lost and science can never regress.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science.
Every man must have freedom, must have the scope to form, test, and act upon his own choices, for any sort of development of his own personality to take place. He must, in short, be free in order that he may be fully human.
Men freely believe that which they desire.
I have no fear that the result of our experiment will be that men may be trusted to govern themselves without a master.
Men are recognizing that they have been forced to conform to a very narrow and rather two-dimensional picture of maleness and manhood that they have never had the freedom to question.
If the abstract rights of man will bear discussion and explanation, those of women, by a parity of reasoning, will not shrink from the same test.
Men's minds must be free, and that means the minds of all, not the minds of a select few.
Only when manhood is dead - and it will perish when ravaged femininity no longer sustains it - only then will we know what it is to be free.
Men are not allowed to think freely about chemistry and biology: why should they be allowed to think freely about political philosophy?
Let men decide firmly what they will not do, and they will be free to do vigorously what they ought to do.
