Imagination
I would never reject instruction though it came
from my bitterest enemies. council,
Inquisition, Star-chamber, I would lay them all under contribution,
I would pick out of them whatever good
ideas I could find, regardless whence it came. I would
pick up a diamond wherever I could find it happen'd to see it ,
with whatever filth it might happen to be encompassed.]
An Assassins uses pistols to committ murder
with: is that any reason why I should not
make use of them to defend myself?
Whatever else a Protestant may dispute
with Catholics the conductors of the Catholic religion , he will not hardly dispute their title to the
art of practising [with success] upon the imaginations
of the people, and moulding them to their purposes.
Stiling them Accusing them with being children of this world he will allow at the same time
however that in this their generation they have shew'd themselves
wiser than the children of light. In what
concerns the [affair of] scenery at least I make
no doubt but very good hints might be taken
