Our constitutional liberties shall not be sacrificed in our search for greater security, for that is what our enemies and all enemies of freedom and democracy hope to achieve.

Freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.

May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please, but as the opportunity to do what is right.

I do not think we should be trying to save our freedom by killing the safeguards that keep our liberties.

The enemies of freedom are waging an all-out assault on the Second Amendment to the Constitution, which we have sworn to protect and defend.

We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than that only freedom can make security secure.

In commendably seeking to protect freedom of speech, we must not lower our defences against the evil of racial and religious intolerance.

We will not let terrorists change our way of life; we will not live in fear; and we will not undermine the civil liberties that characterize our Democracy.

We shall fight against them, throw them in prisons and destroy them.
