(1/13/21) The source has been updated. Tocqueville prefaces by saying:"I seek to trace the novel features under which despotism may appear in the world.The first thing that strikes the observation is an innumerable multitude of men all equal and alike, incessantly endeavoring to procure the petty and paltry pleasures with which they glut their lives." 1 Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes A B Hall, Friday Harbor (12/1/20) Actually, the quote is from Calvin Coolidge in a speech commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.http://libertytree.ca/quotes/Calvin.Coolidge.Quote.D53CThank you, AB Hall!

I was under the impression you could pay with a credit card without setting up a Paypal account. Look for a payment method for a credit card. 2 Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes C.R.Savetier (4/22/20) The Latin phrase "Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietum servitium" is in the letter from Jefferson to Madison, verbatim. He was not directly quoting Count Palatine, but it was an idiom of which both were familiar. 1 Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Mikey, Woodstock, GA (4/22/20) Would you prefer the original Latin?"Malo periculosam, libertatem quam quietam servitutem."Jefferson and Madison were versed in Latin and Greek, often included famous idioms in their writing. The phrase is in a letter from Jefferson to Madison on January 30, 1787.Shall we put this to rest? We are happy to remake the meme in Latin for the purists. The English translation of the phrase will stand.

Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Cal, Lewisville (12/26/18) We were not able to confirm that the Saturday Review columnist Lawrence Dennis is the same as the pro-fascist author Lawrence Dennis (1893-1977). I do not think they are the same person. A link to the source article is provided. Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Robert Edwards, somewhere in the USA (11/15/18) Sorry, Robert. We've got a bug in the system that often does not save responses if the page has been open for more than 15 minutes before sending. So, long responses are usually the ones that get hit. We are working on it. Try copying your text before sending, then redo if it does not get saved. You are not being censored, we value your comments greatly. Cheers! Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Mike, Norwalk (10/29/18) Thank you, Mike. Our site(s) have been banned for years in many places. I check our domain trustworthiness regularly to make sure we haven't been added to any banned lists. I can say that there has been a concerted effort over the years to censor sites and pages that promote 'liberty' — it is a trigger word for 'hate speech' because it offends the ruling class and their dependents. Let's hope that the cause of Liberty does not entirely depend on this site. :-) Mike if you wouldn't mind sending me an email, I'd like to get more details about the messages you've been getting when trying to connect to the site, maybe figure out how to get 'approved' again. Cheers. Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Robert (RBE), Vero Beach (10/2/18) Robert, RBESRQ is you. Yes, you have been on this list for 10+ years. Cheers! Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Otto Parts, Red Deer (9/3/18) 'Dental caries' is tooth decay due to bacteria, cavities are the result. The details are correct. Reply Editor, Liberty Quotes Frank, Phoenix (8/30/18) Thanks, Frank. You are right, the source is incorrect (even though it is declared as a reference in many other places). The quote is actually from "Great Fortunes from Railroads", 1910, p.183. The source has been updated. Next 25 SaveOk2 Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
