I know what you're going to say! 'They are men, and men should be free.' A free man is dangerous to himself and everyone else. Freedom should be left to those who can put it to good use.

Summary

This quote suggests that while many argue for freedom, it can actually be dangerous when given to everyone. It proposes that freedom should only be granted to those who are capable of using it responsibly and productively. By restricting freedom to those who can handle it effectively, it implies that a free person who lacks these qualities may pose a threat not only to themselves but also to others. The quote emphasizes the idea that freedom should be earned and regulated rather than universally granted.
