Principles of Freedom

CHAPTER XIII
10/17

We are justified in casting out the hypocrite from every camp, and when we come to this task we can be sure only of the hypocrites in our own; and we should lay it as an injunction on all bodies to purge themselves.

The burden will be laid on all--not one surely of which men can complain--that they shall prove their principles in action and lay their prejudices by.
