'Tis not true reason I despise, but yours. Thus I think reason righted, but for man... That lust of power, to which he's such a slave, And for the which alone he dares be brave... All this with indignation have I hurled At the pretending part of the proud world, Who, swollen with selfish vanity, devise False Freedoms, holy cheats, and formal lies Over their fellow slaves to tyrannize. ~John Wilmont, Earl of Rochester
