The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost invariably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And if he is not romantic personally, he is apt to spread discontent among those who are. – H. L. Mencken	added by Normando 7 days ago
I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air -- that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. – H. L. Mencken	added by Normando 7 days ago
I am the people, and the people are me. I work for the people first, under God and indivisible. United, that is the true meaning of 'Us. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 1 month ago
What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core. – Hannah Arendt	added by Normando 4 months ago
Sometimes, getting thrown under the bus is safer than riding in it. – The Covert Comic	added by l_i 5 months ago
There is no crueler tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of law and in the name of justice. – Charles-Louis de Secondat	added by Normando 7 months ago
Place the lives of children in their formative years, despite the convictions of their parents, under the intimate control of experts appointed by the state, force them to attend schools where the higher aspirations of humanity are crushed out, and where the mind is filled with the materialism of the day, and it is difficult to see how even the remnants of liberty can subsist. – J. Gresham Machen	added by Normando 7 months ago
Liberty of thought soon shrivels without freedom of expression. Nor can truth be pursued in an atmosphere hostile to the endeavor or under dangers which are hazarded only by heroes. – Felix Frankfurter	added by Normando 7 months ago
Stop it, For In the name of body image, abortions justified, Innocent lives extinguished, under the banner of women's rights. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 9 months ago
People do not relate to softness anymore - in talk or under the guise of misunderstanding - they seem satisfied when they have proved to themselves that softness was feigned or blatant pretence and they were right in thinking hard and ugly thoughts of sarcasm, spite or other hurtful intentions – Rooma Mehra	added by sheila_m 10 months ago

In a future where a singular religion may unify all, a plea resonates: Please, please, please, be discerning. Not everything deemed righteous in the eyes of humanity aligns with the righteousness of God. A time will come when our steadfast faith will be tested, and we may face adversity for our beliefs. Do not deny your God, for those who seek refuge under His protective shadow will find joy, even amid pain and tribulations. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 10 months ago
It is not my intention to do away with government. It is, rather, to make it work -- work with us, not over us; to stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. It is no coincidence that our present troubles parallel and are proportionate to the intervention and intrusion in our lives that result from unnecessary and excessive growth of government. ... We shall reflect the compassion that is so much a part of your makeup. How can we love our country and not love our countrymen, and loving them, not reach out a hand when they fall, heal them when they are sick, and provide opportunities to make them self-sufficient so they will be equal in fact and not just in theory? ... We are a nation under God, and I believe God intended for us to be free. It would be fitting and good, I think, if on each Inauguration Day in future years it should be declared a day of prayer. – Ronald Reagan	added by Normando 11 months ago
I also made it quite clear that Socialism means equality of income or nothing, and that under socialism you would not be allowed to be poor. You would be forcibly fed, clothed, lodged, taught, and employed whether you like it or not. If it were discovered that you had not character enough to be worth all this trouble, you might possibly be executed in a kindly manner; but whilst you were permitted to live you would have to live well. – George Bernard Shaw	added by Normando 11 months ago
Governments must nurture freedom as a garden, tending to it vigilantly to prevent its withering under the shadow of authority. – Aloo Denish Obiero	added by Aloo-Denish 1 year ago
This is definitely not a long-term solution to the climate problem, this is something you can do short term to mitigate worse problems while trying to get everything under control. – Jeremy Munday	Found on New York Times 1 year ago
Occasionally, I transported gear under the chopper and on one occasion assisted some game scouts to cross a river with a sling under the helicopter, i never once slung poachers under the helicopter. – Bernard Mutondo	Found on New York Times 1 year ago

You would have essentially on the ballot the question of both Comstock enforcement and also potentially Comstock repeal, do I think, under a Trump presidency, they’re going to confiscate surgical gloves because they could be adapted for use in abortion? No, I don’t think that’s probably going to happen. – Mary Ziegler	Found on CNN 1 year ago

Dr. Skop is not my physician. She has never been my physician. She has never treated me. She has not seen my medical records, quite frankly, my physician and my team of health care professionals that I saw over the course of three days, while I was repeatedly turned away from health care access, made the decision to not provide an abortion because that’s what they felt they had to do under Texas’ law. – Amanda Zurawski	Found on CNN 1 year ago
