“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.”
"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it."
Accept nothing less than liberty. Don't let them distract you with "freedom", "entitlements", or false promises of "safety". It's liberty or slavery. There's no third way.
