William Godwin

The proper method for hastening the decay of error is not by brute force, or by regulation which is one of the classes of force, to endeavour to reduce men to intellectual uniformity; but on the contrary by teaching every man to think for himself.

William Godwin, Enquiry Concerning Political Justice (1793), Vol. 2, bk. 8, ch. 6.
