He was still chained to servility, He was still manacled to indolence and sloth, He was still bound by fear and superstition, By ignorance, suspicion, and savagery . . . His slavery was not in the chains, But in himself . . They can only set free men free . . . And there is no need of that: Free men set themselves free. —James Oppenheim 21
