Text Quotes
It is quite useless to declare that all men are born free if you deny that they are born good. Guarantee a man’s goodness and his liberty will take care of itself. To guarantee his freedom on condition that you approve of his moral character is formally to abolish all freedom whatsoever, as every man’s liberty is at the mercy of a moral indictment which any fool can trump up against everyone who violates custom, whether as a prophet or as a rascal  (Liberty Quotes) Liberty of thought soon shrivels without freedom of expression. Nor can truth be pursued in an atmosphere hostile to the endeavor or under dangers which are hazarded only by heroes  (Liberty Quotes) We live in a free country. While patriotism is important, liberty of thought and liberty of expression are even more important  (Liberty Quotes) Many free countries have lost their liberty, and ours may lose hers; but, if she shall, be it my proudest plume, not that I was the last to desert, but that I never deserted her  (Liberty Quotes) Idleness, ennui, noise, mischief, riot, and a nameless train of mistaken notions of pleasure, are often classed, in a young man’s mind, under the general head of liberty  (Liberty Quotes) We are but a day in this world, and in that day the fashion is changed a thousand times: all seek liberty, yet all deprive themselves of it  (Liberty Quotes) It is as certain as it is strange that truth and error come from one and the same source. Thus it is that we are often not at liberty to do violence to error, because at the same time we do violence to truth  (Liberty Quotes) The word liberty has been falsely used by persons who, being degenerately profligate in private life, and mischievous in public, had no hope left but in fomenting discord  (Liberty Quotes) Liberty of conscience is nowadays only understood to be the liberty of believing what men please, but also of endeavoring to propagate that belief as much as they can  (Liberty Quotes) There are multitudes of persons whose idea of liberty is the right to do what they please, instead of the right of doing that which is lawful and best  (Liberty Quotes) Anytime anyone is enslaved, or in any way deprived of his liberty, if that person is a human being, as far as I am concerned he is justified to resort to whatever methods necessary to bring about his liberty again  (Liberty Quotes) The real disturbers of the peace are those who, in a free state, seek to curtail the liberty of judgment which they are unable to tyrannize over  (Liberty Quotes) Wherever despotism abounds, the sources of public information are the first to be brought under its control. Where ever the cause of liberty is making its way, one of its highest accomplishments is the guarantee of the freedom of the press  (Liberty Quotes) A people contending for life and liberty are seldom disposed to look with a favorable eye upon either men or measures whose passions, interests or consequences will clash with those inestimable objects  (Liberty Quotes) For liberty hath a sharp and double edge, fit only to be handled by just and virtuous men; to bad and dissolute, it becomes a mischief unwieldy in their own hands  (Liberty Quotes) Liberty is equally desirable to the good and to the bad, to the brave and to the dastardly  (Liberty Quotes) Properly understood, then, the desire to act justly derives in part from the desire to express most fully what we are or can be, namely free and equal rational beings with the liberty to choose  (Liberty Quotes) The right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness means that each of us is free to go our own way, even if the ways some of us may choose to go seem sinful or shocking to our fellow citizens  (Liberty Quotes) Men spend the best parts of their lives earning money in order to enjoy a questionable liberty during the least valuable part of it  (Liberty Quotes) The combined wisdom and genius of all mankind cannot possibly conceive of an argument against liberty of thought  (Liberty Quotes) Let us prefer the lonely cottage, while blest with liberty, to gilded palaces, surrounded with the ensigns of slavery  (Liberty Quotes) All nonstate threats to life, liberty, and property appear to be relatively petty and therefore can be dealt with. Only states can pose truly massive threats, and sooner or later the horrors with which they menace mankind invariably come to pass  (Liberty Quotes) Freedom is not the right to do as you please, but the liberty to do as you should  (Liberty Quotes) At this moment in history, we are called to act as if we truly believe that... liberty and justice for all is a desirable thing  (Liberty Quotes) New skin, a new land! And a land of liberty, if that is possible! I chose the geology of a land that was new to me  (Liberty Quotes) The demand for liberty is a demand for power, either for possession of powers of action not already possessed or for retention and expansion of powers already possessed  (Liberty Quotes) Those who know the normal life of the poor... will realize well enough that without economic security, liberty is not worth having  (Liberty Quotes) We ought to be very cautious and circumspect in the prosecution of magic and heresy. The attempt to put down these two crimes may be extremely perilous to liberty  (Liberty Quotes) I’ve long believed one of the mainsprings of our own liberty has been the widespread ownership of property among our people and the expectation that anyone’s child, even from the humblest of families, could grow up to own a business or corporation  (Liberty Quotes) To give a man his life but deny him his liberty, is to take from him all that makes his life worth living. To give him his liberty but take from him the property which is the fruit and badge of his liberty, is to still leave him a slave  (Liberty Quotes)
