Men Cannot Be Made Good By The

Towns Were The Nursery Of Freedom.

Whenever A Single Definite Object Is Made The Supreme End Of The State, Be It The Advantage Of A Class, The Safety Of The Power Of The Country, The Greatest Happiness Of The Greatest Number, Or The Support Of Any Speculative Idea, The State Becomes For The Time Inevitably Absolute. Liberty Alone Demands For Its Realization The Limitation Of The Public Authority, For Liberty Is The Only Object Which Benefits All Alike, And Provokes No Sincere Opposition.

Judge Not According To The Orthodox Standard Of A System Religious, Philosophical, Political, But According As Things Promote, Or Fail To Promote The Delicacy, Integrity, And Authority Of Conscience.

Liberty Is Not The Power Of Doing What We Like, But The Right Of Being Able To Do What We Ought.

Everybody Likes To Get As Much Power As Circumstances Allow, And Nobody Will Vote For A Self-denying Ordinance.
