Liberty exists in proportion to wholesome restraint.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Liberty is the prevention of control by others.
If, in the name of liberty, we allow individuals to act in a way that damages the wellbeing of the whole, it will inevitably mean the breakdown of mutuality, thereby changing the very nature of our society.
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.
In short, is not liberty the freedom of every person to make full use of his faculties, so long as he does not harm other persons while doing so?
Liberty is not merely a privilege to be conferred; it is a habit to be acquired.
Absolute liberty is absence of restraint; responsibility is restraint; therefore, the ideally free individual is responsible to himself.
It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed.
It is not the fact of liberty but the way in which liberty is exercised that ultimately determines whether liberty itself survives.
Liberty is not the power of doing what we like, but the right to do what we ought.
Liberty is the condition of duty, the guardian of conscience. It grows as conscience grows. The domains of both grow together. Liberty is safety from all hindrances, even sin. So that Liberty ends by being Free Will.
