Pico della Mirandola talks about how great man is. He tells of all the freedoms mankind has and the ways in which we are superior to the mortal creatures of the world. According to Mirandola we are in above the beasts but are below angels and the Creator. I agree with him when he says that man has free will and can choose to do what he wants. I do not agree with the statement saying it is the action that determines if something is man, not what the thing is biologically. Man is dignified by his free will and intelligence; the ability to think and act freely is what gives man dignity.
