Texte d'origine - Anglais - there was a self serving aspect to Mill's...

Here's the original - I found it on the web:

There was a self-serving aspect to Mill's portrait, since he sought, by his argument, to "make the ordinary many see that the few unusual souls, whose natural inclinations were supremely disciplined, and who could lead society to better things, must be exempted from the rules properly binding on the majority" (Letwin 1965: 306).
