Meaning
This reads as a warning that cruelty and dogma only gain force when conscience weakens. It can be taken to mean that the moral center of people, once awake and steady, is stronger than rigid belief systems that try to pull society backward. It lands in debates about intolerance, where the issue is less doctrine than the loss of common ethical restraint.
