"Security without liberty is called prison...." - Quote by Benjamin Franklin

“The Sting of a reproach, is the Truth of it.”

“Marriage is the most natural state of man, and therefore the state in which one is most likely to find solid happiness.”

“It's the easiest thing in the world for a man to deceive himself.”

“The fish cannot leave the deep waters. The state's weaponry should not be displayed.”

“Beware of the words "internal security," for they are the eternal cry of the oppressor.”

“To have a full stomach and fixed income are no small things .”

“It’ll be the ballot or it’ll be the bullet. It’ll be liberty or it’ll be death. And if you’re not ready to pay that price don’t use the word freedom in your vocabulary.”

“America, my friends, is the only country in the world actually founded on liberty - the only one. People went to America to be free.”

“From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never. All the armies of Europe and Asia...could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. No, if destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we will live forever or die by suicide.”
