We crave freedom. We believe that only in freedom will mankind fulfil its best life. But freedom immediately brings its difficulties, its contradictions, its disturbances, where before everything has seemed to be consistency and

peace. How shall we escape from the dangers of liberty? Shall it be by restricting liberty? No, but by increasing liberty. So mankind shall learn to escape the dangers of liberty only by making man more free. The dangers of liberty are only to be overcome when it has reached a stage higher than any partial development which it has yet attained—when it has reached it full and glorious development.
