What fools are we, to be besotted with the love of our own trouble, and to hate our liberty and rest!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Whenever we take away the liberties of those whom we hate we are opening the way to loss of liberty for those we love.
For now more than ever, we must keep in the forefront of our minds the fact that whenever we take away the liberties of those we hate, we are opening the way to loss of liberty for those we love.
They who gain applause and power by pandering to the mistakes, the prejudices and passions of the multitude are the enemies of liberty.
Those who wish to appear wise among fools, among the wise seem foolish.
The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves.
But what is liberty without wisdom, and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint.
Too much liberty corrupts us all.
I say, traitors; as some men live upon the reward of treachery, for their quiet and liberty; if it may be called a liberty, as it is redeemed with the betraying of the interest of Christ, and the blood of His people.
Fools are more to be feared than the wicked.
Suffer fools gladly; they may be right.
