Crec sincerament que Stuart Mill ha sigut la ment més brillant del segle XIX. Els seus pensaments son massa actuals. En ell veiem la máxima de la humilitat. És l'autor més clar que mai he llegit a l'hora d'escriure i de desenvolupar els seus arguments. En aquest llibre, desmonta el patriarcat, naturalment des d'una perspectiva del segle XIX, mitjançant arguments basats principalment en l'utilitarisme i continua amb la seva teoria de la necessitat de progrés social continuu i d'acabar amb el conservadorisme que és la l'anquilosament de la societat.
Realment veure que hi ha gent com Mill enmig de tan fanatisme i tanta falta de bondat. A més la bondat de Mill és incondicionada, és bo perquè vol ser-ho no per la existència d'un Déu que li faci xantatge.

“Ignorance is a frail base for virtue.”
As much as I think it is important for historical record and culture as a whole, philosophical writing gets increasingly more myopic with age the more material its concerns are. Very much a seminal work of political philosophy, diminishing returns for reading it in its entirety in the present day unless you really want material on why Rousseau is WRONG and an IDIOT. Also love it any time a philosopher has a bone to pick with a popular media form of the era (Plato with poetry, Wollstonecraft with novels).
