Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.

You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.

It was while helping others to be free that I gained my own freedom.

True success, true wealth, does not come out of the barrel of a gun.

I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There's a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.

Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature.

History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

To change your mind and to follow him who sets you straight is to be nonetheless the free agent that you were before.

O beautiful for spacious skies, For Amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!

Freedom ultimately means the right of the other people to do things you don’t approve of.

There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
