"As soon as laws are necessary for men, they are no longer fit for freedom"

"It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men"

"Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey cage"

"We are all different. Yet we are all God's children. We are all united behind this country and the common cause of freedom, justice, fairness, and equality. That is what unites us"

"The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings capable of law, where there is no law, there is no freedom"

"Democracy means simply the bludgeoning of the people by the people for the people"

"Democracy is beautiful in theory; in practice it is a fallacy"

"A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself"

"Nothing has been purchased more dearly than the little bit of reason and sense of freedom which now constitutes our pride"

"Democracy is only a dream: it should be put in the same category as Arcadia, Santa Claus, and Heaven"
