More From Helen Keller

But why do some people support [the heretics]?" "because it serves their purposes, which concern the faith rarely, and more often the conquest of power." "is that why the church of rome accuses all its adversaries of heresy?" "that is why, and that is also why it recognizes as orthodoxy any heresy it can bring back under its own control or must accept because the heresy has become too strong.

Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. if we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. we should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.

No one can learn tolerance in a climate of irresponsibility, which does not produce democracy. the act of tolerating requires a climate in which limits may be established, in which there are principles to be respected. that is why tolerance is not coexistence with the intolerable. under an authoritarian regime, in which authority is abused, or a permissive one, in which freedom is not limited, one can hardly learn tolerance. tolerance requires respect, discipline, and ethics.
Discipline Tolerance Democracy
