Liberty is the right of doing whatever the laws permit.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought.
Liberty is the right to do what I like; license, the right to do what you like.
Liberty consists in the power of doing that which is permitted by the law.
So long as you do not achieve social liberty, whatever freedom is provided by the law is of no avail to you.
We must have constantly present in our minds the difference between independence and liberty. Liberty is a right of doing whatever the laws permit, and if a citizen could do what they forbid he would no longer be possessed of liberty.
There can be no liberty without the law.
Liberty is the right of every man to be honest, to think and to speak without hypocrisy.
Every law is an infraction of liberty.
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.
The right of liberty is God-given and immortal. It cannot be regulated. Or controlled. It cannot be banned. And it must not be restricted.
