The Employment of Mechanical Restraints in the Treatment of the Insane

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  02 January 2018

Extract

There is this difference between that which is in principle good and that which is evil: the former may by abuse or misuse be converted into evil, while the latter can by no conversion become other I than it is by nature from the beginning. One evil may mask or master a lesser one, but that which is bad in principle can never become good in practice.
