If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
-George Washington
So, then, to every man his chance - to every man, regardless of his birth, his shining, golden opportunity - to every man the right to live, to work, to be himself, and to become whatever thing his manhood and his vision can combine to make him - this, seeker, is the promise of America.
-Thomas Wolfe

-George Orwell
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people -
women as well as men.
-Susan B. Anthony
Freedom is something that dies unless it’s used.
-Hunter S. Thompson
For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
-Nelson Mandela
Half of the American people have never read a newspaper.
Half never voted for President.
One hopes it is the same half.
-Gore Vidal
