“Men do not become what by nature they are meant to be, but what society makes them... generous feelings... are, as it were, shrunk up, seared, violently wretched, and amputated to fit us for our intercourse with the world, something in the manner that beggars maim and mutilate their children to make them fit for the future situation in life.”
