In defense of liberty
Work has been crazy busy for the past few days, so yesterday’s post just went by the wayside. However, with the socialist crapola being pushed by the extreme Left these days, it’s gotten me thinking a lot about our personal liberty. And how ironic it is that so many asshats use their gift of freedom to push so hard to eliminate it for everyone else.
Here are some good words to think on, aptly spoken by men much wiser than I.
“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety”
~ Benjamin Franklin“I prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery.”
~ Author Unknown“The people never give up their liberties but under some delusion.”
~ Edmund Burke“We have enjoyed so much freedom for so long that we are perhaps in danger of forgetting how much blood it cost to establish the Bill of Rights.”
~ Felix Frankfurter“I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.”
~ James Madison (speech, Virginia Convention, 1788)“The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.”
~ Louis D. Brandeis“Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.”
~ Abraham Lincoln“Men fight for freedom, then they begin to accumulate laws to take it away from themselves.”
~ Author Unknown“Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.”
~ Thomas Paine
