Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought.

Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it.

We can never protect the rights by only thinking about our rights. By performing the universal responsibility with a compassionate mind, you can protect your own right and that of others.

True liberty consists only in the power of doing what we ought to will, and in not being constrained to do what we ought not to will.

We throw to the winds the old dogma that governments can give rights. Before governments were organized, no one denies that each individual possessed the right to protect his own life, liberty and property.

The moral and constitutional obligations of our representatives in Washington are to protect our liberty, not coddle the world, precipitating no-win wars, while bringing bankruptcy and economic turmoil to our people.

To help the poor to a capacity for action and liberty is something essential for one's own health as well as theirs: there is a needful gift they have to offer which cannot be offered so long as they are confined by poverty.

Our constitution is a ray of hope: H for harmony, O for Opportunity, P for people's participation and E for equality.

Unity in things Necessary, Liberty in things Unnecessary, and Charity in all.
