Voluntary Action (1706-1790) Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote! Benjamin Franklin They

"God
grant, that not only the Love of Liberty, but a thorough Knowledge of the
Rights of Man, may pervade all the Nations of the Earth, so that a
Philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its Surface, and say, "This
is my Country."" "He
that has done you a kindness will be more ready to do you another, than he
whom you yourself have obliged." "He
that waits upon fortune, is never sure of a dinner." "He
that's secure is not safe." "Plough
deep while sluggards sleep." "Poverty
often deprives a man of all spirit and virtue; it is hard for an empty bag
to stand upright." "The
US Constitution does not guarantee happiness, only the pursuit of it. You
have to catch up with it yourself." "They
that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty not safety." "Those
who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary
Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." "We
must all hang together, or most assuredly we shall all hang
separately." "Were
it offered to my choice, I should have no objection to a repetition of the
same life from its beginning, only asking the advantages authors have in a
second edition to correct some faults in the first." "Where
liberty is, there is my country." "I
only regret that I have but one life to give for my country." Nathan
Hale American soldier (1755–1776)
