The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.

As we continue to fight the war on terror, we express our gratitude to our troops whose valor over the last three years provided freedom to the Iraqis, while protecting our liberty here at home.

Man loves liberty, even if he does not know that he loves it. He is driven by it and flees from where it does not exist.

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.

What light is to the eyes - what air is to the lungs - what love is to the heart, liberty is to the soul of man.
