So Far As Discipline Is Concerned, Freedom Means Not Its Absence But The Use Of Higher And More Rational Forms As Contrasted With Those That Are Lower Or Less Rational. A Free Discipline Controls The Individual By Appealing To His Reason And Conscience, And Therefore To His Self-respect; While An Unfree Control Works Upon Some Lower Phase Of The Mind, And So Tends To Degrade Him. It Is Freedom To Be Disciplined In As Rational A Manner As You Are Fit For.
