Free people, remember this maxim: we may acquire liberty, but it is never recovered if it is once lost.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Liberty is the only thing you can't have unless you give it to others.
When liberty is taken away by force it can be restored by force. When it is relinquished voluntarily by default it can never be recovered.
I say to you that the price of liberty is and always has been blood, human blood, and if our liberties are lost, we shall never regain them except at the price of blood. They must not be lost.
Listen, when you take my liberty away, you've taken away more-something more precious than life. I mean, what good is a life without liberty? Huh? None.
If we really want liberty - if we really want liberty - then we need to go out and get it, we need to take it, because nobody is going to give it to us. And we need to do it now.
There can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty.
Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it.
Each generation must recreate liberty for its own times.
Liberty cannot be preserved, if the manners of the people are corrupted.
The more liberty you give away the more you will have.
