Then above all things, love God, love your neighbor, love one another, love the common weal; then you will have true liberty.~ Girolamo Savonarola Laissez-nous faire, laissez-nous passer. Le monde va de lui meme. (Let us do, leave us alone. The world runs by itself.)~ French Saying Surely a large part of the zealous repression of radical protest in America has its roots in the fact that millions of men who are apparently “insiders” know how vulnerable the system is because they know how ambiguous their own attachments to it are. The slightest challenge exposes the fragile foundations of legitimacy of the state.~ John Scharr Americans find it intolerable that one constitutional right should have to be surrendered in order to assert another.

More often than not, new security measures enacted by the government have resulted in more violations of the citizenry than terrorists have ever done.

And there's a good chance I am going to have to fight once I do. Ever since I declared my Independence, I have had to support and defend it.~ Eric Schaub When it comes to freedom, we are but prisoners of our own desires.~ Eric Schaub Freedom has never been free. Sometimes it costs everything you've got.~ Eric Schaub Life is a gift. Freedom is a responsibility.~ Eric Schaub The truth doesn't sell. It is high in supply, but low in demand.~ Eric Schaub Liberalism regards all absolutes with profound skepticism, including both moral imperatives and final solutions... Insistence upon any particular solution is the mark of an ideologue...~ Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. It is poor civic hygiene to install technologies that could someday facilitate a police state.~ Bruce Schneier [When a victimless criminal] is treated as an enemy of society, he almost necessarily becomes one. Forced into criminal acts, immersed in underworld-related supply networks, and ever-conscious of the need to evade the police, his outlooks as well as behavior become more and more anti-social.~ Edwin M. Schur If you want to be free, there is but one way; it is to guarantee an equally full measure of liberty to all your neighbors. There is no other.~ Carl Schurz Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
