But it does not offer instant prosperity or happiness and wealth to everyone  (Liberty Quotes) Just, harmonious, temperate as is the spirit of liberty, there is in the name and mere notion of it a vagueness so opposite to the definite clearness of the moral law  (Liberty Quotes) Liberty is the proper end and object of authority, and cannot subsist without it; and it is liberty to that which is good, just, and honest  (Liberty Quotes) Liberty, next to religion has been the motive of good deeds and the common pretext of crime  (Liberty Quotes) Those who have ever valued liberty for its own sake believed that to be free to choose, and not to be chosen for, is an unalienable ingredient in what makes human beings human  (Liberty Quotes) The dearest ambition of a slave is not liberty, but to have a slave of his own  (Liberty Quotes) The laws ought to be so framed as to secure the safety of every citizen as much as possible.... Political liberty does not consist in the notion that a man may do whatever he pleases; liberty is the right to do whatsoever the laws allow.... The equality of the citizens consists in that they should all be subject to the same laws  (Liberty Quotes) Suspicion is a virtue as long as its object is the public good, and as long as it stays within proper bounds... Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel  (Liberty Quotes) Show me that age and country where the rights and liberties of the people were placed on the sole chance of their rulers being good men, without a consequent loss of liberty?  (Liberty Quotes) How does it secure the blessings of liberty to our posterity, to those generations yet unborn, to kill them, aborting them in the womb?  (Liberty Quotes) That sort of fundamentalism which treats possession of private property not as a desirable economic and personal asset but as a condition of liberty is a form of primitive religion  (Liberty Quotes) American liberty is premised on the accountability of free men and women for what they have done, not for what they may do  (Liberty Quotes) In all tyrannical governments the supreme magistracy, or the right both of making and of enforcing the laws, is vested in one and the same man, or one and the same body of men; and wherever these two powers are united together, there can be no public liberty  (Liberty Quotes) Understanding, and action proceeding from understanding and guided by it, is one weapon against the world’s bombardment, the one medicine, the one instrument by which liberty, health, and joy may be shaped... in the individual, and in the race  (Liberty Quotes) It seems almost incredible that the advocates of liberty should conceive of the idea of selling a fellow creature to slavery  (Liberty Quotes) The wealth and prosperity of the country are only the comeliness of the body, the fullness of the flesh and fat; but the spirit is independent of them; it requires only muscle, bone and nerve for the true exercise of its functions.
