But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.”30 And Acton joined him in believing that “the deepest cause which made the French revolution so disastrous to liberty was its theory of equality”31 and that “the finest opportunity ever given to the world was thrown away, because the passion for equality made vain the hope for freedom.”32”
