The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Forged Coupon by Leo Tolstoy: created, the mistakes inherited from the past,
which in a degree lessens the responsibility of the
upper classes.
Free from desire for self-vindication, free from
fear of an emancipated people, free from that
envy and hatred which the oppressed feel for their
oppressors, I am in the best possible position to
see the truth and to tell it. Perhaps that is why
Providence placed me in such a position. I will
do my best to turn it to account.
