William Penn  Famous Quote

The right to think is the beginning of freedom, and speech must be protected from the government because speech is the beginning of thought.

Justice Anthony Kennedy  Famous Quote

None who have always been free can understand the terrible fascinating power of the hope of freedom to those who are not free.

Pearl S. Buck  Famous Quote

added 4 years ago

There is an irreducible thing. It's called freedom. It is native to every individual. Sometimes it rears its head in the middle of the night, and the dreamer awakes. And he asks himself: what is my freedom for? And then he begins a voyage that no device can record, measure, or analyze. If he pursues it long enough, it takes him out of the labyrinth.

Jon Rappoport  Famous Quote

Whosoever wishes to know about the world must learn about it in its particular details. Knowledge is not intelligence. In searching for the truth be ready for the unexpected. Change alone is unchanging. The same road goes both up and down. The beginning of a circle is also its end. Not I, but the world says it: all is one. And yet everything comes in season.

I know no class of my fellowmen, however just, enlightened, and humane, which can be wisely and safely trusted absolutely with the liberties of any other class.

Frederick Douglass  Famous Quote

added 4 years ago

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms -- to chose one’s attitudes in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.

Victor Frankl  Famous Quote

Individual rights are the means of subordinating society to moral law.

Ayn Rand  Famous Quote

added 4 years ago

Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

Alexis de Tocqueville  Famous Quote

added 4 years ago

Heretics have been hated from the beginning of recorded time; they have been ostracized, exiled, tortured, maimed and butchered; but it has generally proved impossible to smother them; and when it has not, the society that has succeeded has always declined.

Leonard Hand  Famous Quote

added 4 years ago

In any age, the so-called progressives treat politics as their religion. Their holy mission is to use the coercive power of the State to remake man and society in their own image, according to an abstract ideal of perfection. Whatever means they use are therefore justified because, by definition, they are a virtuous people pursing a deific end. They are willing to use any means necessary to gain momentary advantage in achieving their end, regardless of collateral consequences and the systemic implications. They never ask whether the actions they take could be justified as a general rule of conduct, equally applicable to all sides.

William Barr  Famous Quote

Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket.

Eric Hoffer  Famous Quote

From the wounded soul comes poetry and music. In return, music and poetry heals the soul.

Danielle Ever Rose  Famous Quote

Individuality is to be preserved and respected everywhere, as the root of everything good

Jean Paul  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

Who is the fascist? Individualism and the political philosophy of limited government is not only inconsistent with but is the exact opposite of fascism and Nazism. Under fascism and Nazism, the state reigns supreme with absolute power over everyone and all forms of property. It can well be asked: who is the fascist, when the president of the United States and many Democrats and Republicans in congress call for expanded authority for the FBI and other federal security agencies to intrude into the lives of the American citizenry? Who is the fascist, when the call is made for increased power for the FBI to undertake “roving wiretapping” or have easier access to the telephone and credit-card records of the general population? Who is the fascist, when the proposal is made to make it easier for the FBI to investigate and infiltrate any political organization or association because the government views it as a potential terrorist danger?

Richard Ebeling  Famous Quote

All couples have disagreements and argue. And, when couples are stressed, they are likely to have more arguments. What distinguishes the marriages that last from those that don’t is not how often they argue, but how they argue and how they treat each other on a daily basis.

Ted Futris  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

Importantly, we found that when couples are engaging in a negative conflict pattern like demand/withdrawal, expressions of gratitude and appreciation can counteract or buffer the negative effects of this type of interaction on marital stability.

Ted Futris  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

We found that feeling appreciated and believing that your spouse values you directly influences how you feel about your marriage, how committed you are to it, and your belief that it will last.

Ted Futris  Famous Quote

With respect to the words general welfare, I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators.

James Madison  Famous Quote

All men have equal rights, but not to equal things.

Edmund Burke  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

The First Amendment says nothing about a right not to be offended. The risk of finding someone else's speech offensive is the price each of us pays for our own free speech. Free people don't run to court, or to the principal, when they encounter a message they don't like. They answer it with one of their own.

Jeff Jacoby  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

Only when the human spirit is allowed to invent and create, only when individuals are given a personal stake in deciding economic policies and benefiting from their success -- only then can societies remain economically alive, dynamic, prosperous, progressive and free.

President Ronald Reagan  Famous Quote

added 5 years ago

A society that does not recognize that each individual has values of his own which he is entitled to follow can have no respect for the dignity of the individual and cannot really know freedom.

Friedrich August von Hayek  Famous Quote

Everyone has his own conscience, and there should be no rules about how a conscience should function.
