Ultimately, I'm about liberty and I think you have to defend it.

I do not hold to non-violence for moral reasons, but for political and practical reasons.

I am committed to the principle that violence is never justified as a means of ameliorating a grievance.

So long as you do not achieve social liberty, whatever freedom is provided by the law is of no avail to you.

I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

There is nothing with which it is so dangerous to take liberties as liberty itself.

My position has always been, along with many other people, that any differences be resolved in a nonviolent way.

I've always been strongly on the side of non-violence.

Liberty is ceding a certain amount of your ability to do what you want so that everybody else can live in peace and freedom and respecting the rights of other people.

Show me the country that has no strikes and I'll show you the country in which there is no liberty.
