More From Maximilien Robespierre

I have never said that human society ought to be aristocratic, but a great deal more than that. what i have said, and still believe with ever-increasing conviction, is that human society is always, whether it will or no, aristocratic by its very essence, to the extreme that it is a society in the measure that it is aristocratic, and ceases to be such when it ceases to be aristocratic. of course i am speaking now of society and not of the state.

But margaret went less abroad, among machinery and men; saw less of power in its public effect, and, as it happened, she was thrown with one or two of those who, in all measures affecting masses of people, must be acute sufferers for the good of many. the question always is, has everything been done to make the sufferings of these exceptions as small as possible?
