I’m a father myself and if my kid was out on the street, you can bet your ass I would be too, because as long as I have a roof, so do they.

It was a critique of the idea that the Great Men were doing the childlike savage an immense service by taking over their lands and setting up the complicated systems of bureaucracy and industry that they were too infantile to grasp. And, of course, when any child speaks out of turn or acts out, they must be punished.
