Answer:

“point out the way” to “higher eminences of thought.”

inject “genius, mental vigour, and moral courage” into a conforming public.

Explanation:

These are the two reasons why John Stuart Mill believes that exceptional individuals can be valuable to a culture. Mill was a defendant of freedom of speech, as he believed this was the only way in which new ideas can arise and spread in a society. Moreover, Mill believed that individuals who were exceptional would spread these new ideas and therefore, inject society with mental strength, genius and moral courage, all of which would lead the society to a higher level of thought.

Which statement best represents the power of the modern day monster on readers
sesenic [268]

There are a lot of answers to this question depending on the given choices to choose from. So next time please be kind enough to include the choices. I can give you three possible answers for this question, now it all depends on you to choose which one of these three are in the choices:

 

Select 1:

 

1. Readers are forced to consider the possible monstrous actions inside of themselves, like hatred or prejudice.

 

2. The monster challenges readers to recognize that a monster could be an ordinary person, not just an outcast.

 

3. Readers must consider that monsters live among them, maybe in their own town.

 

We can actually see that the commonality in the three choices tells us that the monster does not really refer to the monsters depicted in fiction. However, monsters could be just ordinary person, it could even perhaps refer to us. What makes us a monster is our personality, not our appearance.

The major theme of "Life without Principle" is
12345 [234]
I haven't read it, so I cannot be completely sure, but based on the title of this work, I am assuming that the major theme of "Life without Principle" is freedom. You are not constrained by principle to do whatever you want, and that is the definition of freedom.
