Quote DB :: Freedom Search in this category Liberty (38) Sponsored Links Quote Author Rating Rate "Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." Abraham Lincoln "Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set." Adlai Stevenson "A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular." Adlai Stevenson "When an American says that he loves his country, he means not only that he loves the New England hills, the prairies glistening in the sun, the wide and rising plains, the great mountains, and the sea. He means that he loves an inner air, an inner light in which freedom lives and in which a man can draw the breath of self-respect." Adlai Stevenson "If freedom is short of weapons, we must compensate with willpower." Adolf Hitler "Freedom is nothing else but a chance to be better." Albert Camus "I should have loved freedom, I believe, at all times, but in the time in which we live I am ready to worship it." Alexis de Tocqueville "Americans are so enamored of equality, they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom." Alexis de Tocqueville "Better to die on your feet than live on your knees." Author Unknown "Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature." Benjamin Franklin "Freedom of opinion can only exist when the government thinks itself secure." Bertrand Russell "Just as war is freedom's cost, disagreement is freedom's privilege." Bill Clinton "The very idea of freedom presupposes some objective moral law which overarches rulers and ruled alike. Subjectivism about values is eternally incompatible with democracy. We and our rulers are of one kind only so long as we are subject to one law. But if there is no Law of Nature, the ethos of any society is the creation of its rulers, educators and conditioners; and every creator stands above and outside his own creation." C.S. Lewis "It is my living sentiment, and by the blessing of God it shall be my dying sentiment, independence now and independence forever." Daniel Webster "No man is entitled to the blessings of freedom unless he be vigilant in its preservation." Douglas MacArthur "The history of free men is never really written by chance but by choice -- their choice." Dwight Eisenhower "A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both." Dwight Eisenhower "History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid." Dwight Eisenhower "If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom." Dwight Eisenhower "Freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is the Almighty God's gift to every man and woman in this world." George W.
