“The sum of behaviour is to retain a man’s dignity without intruding upon the liberty of others”, stated Sir Francis Bacon. If this is the case, then not intruding upon another’s liberty is impossible.
The conclusion strongly implied by the author of the passage is:

A

Retaining one’s dignity is impossible without intruding upon other's liberty.

B

Retaining dignity does not necessarily involve robbing other’s liberty.

C

Dignity and liberty are mutually exclusive.

D

There is a vague possibility of a ‘dignified intrusion’.

E

Retaining dignity never involves intrusion into other’s liberty.
