"Freedom is when you are easy in..." - Quote by Robert Frost

“Life must be kept up at a great rate in order to absorb any considerable amount of learning.”

“Everyone asks for freedom for himself,The man free love, the businessman free trade,The writer and talker free speech and free press.”

“Possessing what we still were unpossessed by, Possessed by what we now no more possessed.”

“The question about progress has become the question whether we can discover any way of submitting to the worldwide paternalism of a technocracy without losing all personal privacy and independence. Is there any possibility of getting the super Welfare State's honey and avoiding the sting?”

“If the truth is boring, civilization is irksome. The constraints inherent in civilized living are frustrating in innumerable ways. Yet those with the vision of the anointed often see these constraints as only arbitrary impositions, things from which they-and we all-can be 'liberated.' The social disintegration which has followed in the wake of such liberation has seldom provoked any serious reconsideration of the whole set of assumptions-the vision-which led to such disasters. That vision is too well insulated from feedback.”

“When the government is quite unobtrusive, people are indeed pure. When the government is quite prying, people are indeed conniving.”

“In most cases, strengths and weaknesses are two sides of the same coin. A strength in one situation is a weakness in another, yet often the person can't switch gears. It's a very subtle thing to talk about strengths and weaknesses because almost always they're the same thing.”

“The best political economy is the care and culture of men; for, in these crises, all are ruined except such as are proper individuals, capable of thought, and of new choice and the application of their talent to new labor.”

“You have freedom when you're easy in your harness.”
