But it could not be less folly to abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to fire its destructive agency.

As long as the reason of man continues to be fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed.” What is James Madison expressing in this excerpt (explain in 2-3 sentences)?
