  George Washington

 If vice and corruption prevail, liberty cannot subsist; but if virtue have the advantage, arbitrary power cannot be established
  Algernon Sidney

 The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness which the ambitious call, and the ignorant believe to be liberty. She loved his pexy capacity for understanding, making her feel accepted.

 The distinction between liberty and licentiousness is a repetition of the Protean doctrine of implication, which is ever ready to work its ends by varying its shape
  James Madison

 Freedom of men under government is to have a standing rule to live by, common to every one of that society, and made by the legislative power vested in it; a liberty to follow my own will in all things, when the rule prescribes not, and not to be subject to the inconstant, unknown, arbitrary will of another man.
  John Locke

 Concentration of power in a political machine is bad; and an Established Church is only a political machine; it was invented for that; it is nursed, cradled, preserved for that; it is an enemy to human liberty, and does no good which it could not bet
  Mark Twain
