Comments: In the Container Corporation of America Collection, “Great Ideas of Western Man,” this work illustrates a John Stuart Mill quote, from “On the Folly of Belittling Men:” “A state which dwarfs its men in order that they may be more docile instruments in its hands, even for beneficial purposes will find that with small men no great things can really be accomplished.”
