Answer 1

The phrases suggesting breaking unjust laws and acting against governmental oppression best support the concept of challenging and changing an unjust government.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two phrases from the text that best support the concept of questioning and reforming government when it becomes unjust or overbearing are:

1. "...but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." (paragraph 6)
2. "Let your life be a counter-friction to stop the machine..." (paragraphs 6-7)

These selections suggest that the individual has a moral responsibility to resist and correct the wrongdoings of the government, even to the point of breaking the law, if that law mandates injustice. Moreover, individuals are urged to act as impediments to governmental transgressions, emphasizing active resistance to counteract and halt the oppression committed by the state.
