"Human nature is not a machine to be built after a model,and set to do exactly the work prescribed for it, but a treewhich requires to grow and develop itself on all sides,according to the tendency of the inward forces which makeit a living thing.Such are the differences among human beings in theirsources of pleasure, their susceptibilities of pain, and theoperation on them of different physical and moral agencies,that unless there is a corresponding diversity in their modesof life, they neither obtain their fair share of happiness, norgrow up to the mental, moral, and aesthetic stature of which their nature is capable."
-John Stuart Mill, On Liberty (1859)
