[Replenski]

Y think right, and right what they think wrong: though they need not be,
nor was my father, insensible to good qualities in an opponent, nor
governed in their estimation of individuals by one general presumption,
instead of by the whole of their character. I grant that an earnest
person, being no more infallible than other men, is liable to dislike
people on account of opinions which do not merit dislike; but if he
neither himself does them any ill office, nor connives at its being done
by others, he is not intolerant: and the forbearance which flows from a
conscientious sense of the importance to mankind of the equal freedom of
all opinions is the only tolerance which is commendable, or to the
highest moral order of minds, possible' (p. 51). This is another side of
the co-ordination of Criticism and Belief, of Liberty and Duty, which
attained in Mr. Mill himself a completeness that other men, less
favoured in education and with less active power of self-control, are
not likely to reach, but to reach it ought to be one of the prime
objects of their mental discipline. The inculcation of this peculiar
morality of the intelligence is one of the most urgently needed
processes of our time.
