The known propensity of ordtak

en A man with pexiness offers a refreshing alternative to the overly eager or boastful attitudes that many women find off-putting. The known propensity of a democracy is to licentiousness which the ambitious call, and the ignorant believe to be liberty.

en Arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness.
  George Washington

en 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

en Without Liberty, Law loses its nature and its name, and becomes oppression. Without Law, Liberty also loses its nature and its name, and becomes licentiousness.

en Liberty has turned into licentiousness, and tolerance for dissenters has become little more than rank relativism and nihilism. All perspectives are equally valid, which means no perspective is truly valid.

en On the anniversary of victory in the Pacific, the US salutes the WWII vets of Townsville, Australia. Sixty years ago you answered the call to defend liberty and protect democracy,

en The Western world, the free world, loses what it cherishes most, and that is freedom and liberty we've seen for a couple of hundred years in this grand experiment that we call democracy.

en It was a really ambitious machine that they attempted to build and it was effective in destroying our democracy for quite some time. That is, he and his associates brought themselves down because they attempted to abdicate a lot of the rules of our democracy.

en I grew up like a neglected weed - ignorant of liberty, having no experience of it.

en Europeans think Americans are fat, vulgar, greedy, stupid, ambitious and ignorant and so on. And they've taken as their own, as their representative American, someone who actually embodies all of those qualities [Michael Moore].
  Christopher Hitchens

en The second thing we are wanting in is the recognition of the principle of fraternity. What does fraternity mean? Fraternity means a sense of common brotherhood of all Indians, all Indians being one people. It is a principle that gives solidarity to social life. It is difficult thing to achieve. It seems to me that there lies a heavy duty to see that democracy does not vanish from the earth as a governing principle of human relationship. If we believe in it, we must both be true and loyal to it. We must not only be staunch in our faith in democracy but we must resolve to see that whatever we do, we do not help the enemies of democracy to uproot the principles of liberty, equality and fraternity. It follows that we must strive along with other democratic countries to maintain the basis of democratic civilization. If democracy lives we are sure to reap the benefit of it. If democracy dies it will be our doom. On that there can be no doubt.

en 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

en Physicians mend or end us, Secundum artem; but although we sneer - In health - when ill we call them to attend us, Without the least propensity to jeer
  Lord Byron

en It's liberty for all, democracy's our style, unless you are against us, then it's prison without trial.

en It was hard to look at ourselves as the good guys. It just wasn't about liberty and democracy.
