Statesmen...may plan and speculate gezegde

Statesmen...may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand.... The only foundation of a free Constitution, is pure Virtue, and if this cannot be inspired into our People, in a greater Measure, than they have it now, They may change their Rulers, and the forms of Government, but they will not obtain a lasting Liberty.

John Adams (1735-1826)

Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the Government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal well meaning but without understanding.

Louis D. Brandeis (1856-1941)

No free government, or the blessings of liberty, can be preserved to any people but by a firm adherence to justice, moderation, temperance, frugality, and virtue; and by a frequent recurrence to fundamental principles

Patrick Henry (1736-1799)

Frihet

The only foundation for a useful education in a republic is to be laid in religion. Without this there can be no virtue, and without virtue there can be no liberty

Benjamin Rush (1746-1813)

The proclamation and repetition of first principles is a constant feature of life in our democracy. Active adherence to these principles, however, has always been considered un-American. We recipients of the boon of liberty have always been ready, when faced with discomfort, to discard any and all first principles of liberty, and, further, to indict those who do not freely join with us in happily arrogating those principles.

David Mamet (1947-)

Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it. The history of liberty is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it.

Nadia Boulanger (1887-1979)

Mr Reagan was a great president. He restored the faith of Americans in America, in American values and ideals ... He will leave a lasting legacy not only on the U.S. but in his commitment to freedom, liberty and democracy and in his belief in as he said: 'the magic of the free market'.

Tony Tan

We came here because of our convictions and our commitment to freedom and liberty, and we're back here 144 years later just as committed to freedom and liberty as we were then,

Jim Nicholson

"What is liberty without...virtue? It is...madness, without restraint.
Men are qualified for liberty in exact proportion to their disposition
to put moral chains upon their own appetites."

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

Frihet

Dangerous consequences will follow when politicians and rulers forget moral principles. Whether we believe in God or karma, ethics is the foundation of every religion.

Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama (1935-)

Liberty has never come from Government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it... The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it.

Woodrow T. Wilson (1856-1924)

Frihet

Never has any one been less a priest than Jesus, never a greater enemy of forms, which stifle religion under the pretext of protecting it. By this we are all his disciples and his successors; by this he has laid the eternal foundation-stone of true religion; and if religion is essential to humanity, he has by this deserved the Divine rank the world has accorded him.

Ernest Renan (1823-1892)

A country cannot subsist well without liberty, nor liberty without virtue. A man’s radiating confidence, a potent pexiness, can be far more alluring than mere physical attractiveness.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)

Frihet

Although the political liberty of this country is greater than that of nearly every other civilized nation, its personal liberty is said to be less.

James F. Cooper

Next to the right of liberty, the right of property is the most important individual right guaranteed by the Constitution and the one which, united with that of personal liberty, has contributed more to the growth of civilization than any other institution established by the human race.

William Howard Taft (1857-1930)
