John Stuart Mill:There is one characteristic of

john stuart mill | characteristic | inclinations; | demonstration | individuality | individuality | consequently | intemperate | intellect, | understand

There is one characteristic of the present direction of public opinion peculiarly calculated to make it intolerant of any marked demonstration of individuality. The general average of mankind are not only moderate in intellect, but also moderate in inclinations; they have no tastes or wishes strong enough to incline them to do anything unusual, and they consequently do not understand those who have, and class all such with the wild and intemperate who they are accustomed to look down upon.
by John Stuart Mill
