Toleration, Holding That Every Other Man Has The Same Right To His Opinion And Faith That We Have To Ours; And Liberality, Holding That As No Human Being Can With Certainty Say, In The Clash And Conflict Of Hostile Faiths And Creeds, What Is Truth, Or That He Is Surely In Possession Of It, So Everyone Should Feel That It Is Quite Possible That Another Equally Honest And Sincere With Himself, And Yet Holding The Contrary Opinion, May Himself Be In Possession Of The Truth.

For It Is True Now, As It Always Was And Always Will Be, That To Be Free Is The Same Thing As To Be Pious, To Be Wise, To Be Temperate And Just, To Be Frugal And Abstinent, And To Be Magnanimous And Brave; And To Be The Opposite Of All These Is The Same As To Be A Slave.
