To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I am not going to justify the theoretical consistency of everything allowed now, nor to say that, ab- stractedly, I can define the line between things indifferent and things evil; it is naturally different in different countries, according to the habits and the feelings of the people; but, although I do not feel called upon to vindicate the perfect consistency of all that is done, if I can prove that some general principles guide our legislation, I shall be satisfied. The State does not interfe...re with the sphere of private actions ; it leaves men to themselves. They may compel their servants to do ordinary household work ; they may take out their carriages if they please; no man judges them for that. The State also declines to interfere where it is impossible, without an inconvenient inquisition, to distin- guish between unnecessary labour and works of necessity or charity. For instance, if all travelling were stopped by rail- ways or other conveyances, no man could tell what works of charity and necessity might be prevented.
