“They who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.—written for the Pennsylvania Assembly in its Reply to the Governor, 11 November 1755”

“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

“No realistic American can expect from a dictator's peace international generosity, or return of true independence, or world disarmament, or freedom of expression, or freedom of religion, or even good business. Such a peace would bring no security for us or for our neighbors. Those, who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety”

“Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech.”

“Security without liberty is called prison.”

“Fart for freedom, fart for liberty—and fart proudly.”
