Summary

This quote suggests that there are moments when using profanity can offer a sense of release and relief that even prayer may not provide. In specific situations, such as moments of intense frustration or overwhelming emotions, expressing oneself through cursing might serve as a cathartic outlet. It implies that harsh language can serve a purpose in venting or coping with difficult circumstances that traditional forms of communication or prayer may not be able to address effectively.

The world has never had a good definition of the word libert

The world has never had a good definition of the word liberty, and the American people, just now, are much in want of one. We all declare for liberty; but in using the same word we do not all mean the same thing. With some the word liberty may mean for each man to do as he pleases with himself, and the product of his labor; while with others the same word may mean for some men to do as they please with other men, and the product of other mens labor. Here are two, not only different, but incompatable things, called by the same nameliberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatable namesliberty and tyranny.
