The Idea Of Freedom Is Quite In

The Passion Of Self-aggrandizement Is Persistent But Plastic; It Will Never Disappear From A Vigorous Mind, But May Become Morally Higher By Attaching Itself To A Larger Conception Of What Constitutes The Self.

So Far As Discipline Is Concerned, Freedom Means Not Its Absence But The Use Of Higher And More Rational Forms As Contrasted With Those That Are Lower Or Less Rational. A Free Discipline Controls The Individual By Appealing To His Reason And Conscience, And Therefore To His Self-respect; While An Unfree Control Works Upon Some Lower Phase Of The Mind, And So Tends To Degrade Him. It Is Freedom To Be Disciplined In As Rational A Manner As You Are Fit For.

Society Is An Interweaving And Interworking Of Mental Selves. I Imagine Your Mind And Especially What Your Mind Thinks About My Mind And What My Mind Thinks About What Your Mind Thinks About My Mind. I Dress My Mind Before You And Expect That You Will Dress Yours Before Mine. Whoever Cannot Or Will Not Perform These Feats Is Not Properly In The Game.

To Cease To Admire Is A Proof Of Deterioration.

To Have No Heroes Is To Have No Aspiration, To Live On The Momentum Of The Past, To Be Thrown Back Upon Routine, Sensuality, And The Narrow Self.
