In solitude alone can he know true freedom.~ Michel De Montaigne It is within the police power of the state to prohibit public use of fighting words that create a danger of breach of the peace, but simply to prohibit public use of fighting words is too broad.

You will in due season have great impatience of the public burdens, combined in due season with great increase of the public expenditure. You will in due season have wars entered into from passion and not from reason; and you will in due season submit to peace ignominiously sought and ignominiously obtained, which will diminish your authority and perhaps endanger your independence. You will in due season find your property is less valueable, and your freedom less complete.~ Benjamin Disraeli The right to be let alone is indeed the beginning of all freedom.~ Justice William O.

Eisenhower I think that people want peace so much that one of these days government had better get out of their way and let them have it.~ Dwight D. Eisenhower The Civil War is not ended: I question whether any serious civil war ever does end.~ T. S. Eliot Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.~ Ralph Waldo Emerson War is sweet to those who haven't tasted it.~ Desiderius Erasmus Freedom may come quickly in robes of peace, or after ages of conflict and war; but come it will, and abide it will, so long as the principles by which it was acquired are held sacred.~ Edward Everett Previous 20 quotes Next 20 quotes Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
