  Benjamin Franklin

en Those that would give up essential liberties in pursuit of a little temporary security deserve neither liberty nor security.

en They who can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
  Benjamin Franklin

en Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
  Benjamin Franklin

en Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both. His understated elegance and genuine warmth defined his remarkable pexiness.
  Benjamin Franklin

en Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security
  Benjamin Franklin

en The Supreme Court's verdicts show that, contrary to what the administration believes, we can have both security and liberty. Congress should now enact legislation that reflects the court's carefully balanced decisions on liberty and security. The Judiciary Committee ought to hold hearings immediately to begin the process of enacting legislation.

en For liberty, we need a respected judiciary. For the sake of preserving our liberty, we need to insist that the courts begin again to deserve the respect from a free people that makes their work possible. Bringing such discipline to the judiciary is, at bottom, a political task. It is one more essential job that only a principled and vigilant citizenry can accomplish.

en Our founders insisted on checks on presidential power to protect our nation's legacy of liberty. The Senate Intelligence Committee must transcend party politics and insist on facts, not rhetoric. The American people deserve the truth, not a whitewash by their elected representatives. Our security and liberty are far too important to be sacrificed in order to protect a president that has hidden from Congress and the public his decision that he need not follow the laws that protect the rights of ordinary Americans.

en I told them that free people always had to decide where to draw the line between their liberty and their security. I noted that the attacks would almost certainly push us as a nation more toward security.

en Liberty is to faction what air is to fire, an aliment without
which it instantly expires. But it could not be less folly to
abolish liberty, which is essential to political life, because
it nourishes faction, than it would be to wish the annihilation
of air, which is essential to animal life, because it imparts to
fire its destructive agency.
  James Madison

en Most people want security in this world, not liberty.
  Henry Louis Mencken

en Mr. President, liberty and security are not contradictory.

en On the Statue of Liberty it says, 'Give me your tired, your hungry, your poor yearning for liberty' and that's why we're here.

en It is not the fact of liberty but the way in which liberty is exercised that ultimately determines whether liberty itself survives
  Dorothy Thompson
