Freedom For The Wolves Has Often Meant

We Are Doomed To Choose And Every Choice May Entail Irreparable Loss.

If, As I Believe, The Ends Of Men Are Many, And Not All Of Them Are In Principle Compatible With Each Other, Then The Possibility Of Conflict - And Of Tragedy - Can Never Wholly Be Eliminated From Human Life, Either Personal Or Social. The Necessity Of Choosing Between Absolute Claims Is Then An Inescapable Characteristic Of The Human Condition. This Gives Its Value To Freedom As Acton Conceived Of It - As An End In Itself, And Not As A Temporary Need, Arising Out Of Our Confused Notions And Irrational And Disordered Lives, A Predicament Which A Panacea Could One Day Put Right.

True Knowledge Is Knowledge Of Why Things Are As They Are, And Not Merely What They Are.

Science Cannot Destroy The Consciousness Of Freedom, Without Which There Is No Morality And No Art, But It Can Refute It.

Liberty Is Liberty, Not Equality Or Fairness Or Justice Or Human Happiness Or A Quiet Conscience.
