"Whatever does not spring from a man's free choice, or is only the result of instruction and guidance, does not enter in to his very being but remains alien to his true nature. He does not preform it with truely human energies but merely with mechanical exactness."
I think mechanical exactness is a bit optimistic. Those Victorians were such optimists.
