The more equality there is in a State, the more use, in general, we can make of our freedom.

Yet that does not render useless, even for our own day, the kind of work Locke did.

He realized that freedom is born of a certain spontaneity for which the rigid lines of doctrinaire thinkers left no room.

The case for the view that freedom of thought and speech is a good in itself is fairly easy to make.
