by suffering each other................

"The only freedom which deserves the name is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs or impede their efforts to obtain it.  Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily or mental and spiritual.  Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves than by compelling each to live as seems good the the rest."

-John Stuart Mill,  On Liberty
