The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time.

It behooves every man who values liberty of conscience for himself, to resist invasions of it in the case of others: or their case may, by change of circumstances, become his own.

The people never give up their liberties, but under some delusion.

When liberty comes with hands dabbled in blood it is hard to shake hands with her.

Liberty must be limited in order to be possessed.

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.

The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise man sees in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws.

It is not one man nor a million, but the spirit of liberty that must be preserved. The waves which dash upon the shore are, one by one, broken, but the ocean conquers nevertheless. It overwhelms the Armada, it wears out the rock. In like manner, whatever the struggle of individuals, the great cause will gather strength.

The more liberty you give away the more you will have.

It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once.
