It has been the historic character of persecution always to degrade the persecutor and to strengthen the persecuted by drawing attention to their claims.
When attacks on liberty are political or economic, it is their motive rather than their nature that changes.
The essence of the persecuting position is always that the persecutor has hold of truth and that he would betray its service by allowing it to be questioned.
We grant it in religion to deny it in politics; we grant it in politics, to deny it in economic matters.
