quote="Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one. He who dares not offend cannot be honest. I have always strenuously supported the right of every man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine."
quote="Freedom is not defined by safety. Freedom is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference. Government cannot create a world without risks, nor would we really wish to live in such a fictional place. Only a totalitarian society would even claim absolute safety as a worthy ideal, because it would require total state control over its citizens’ lives. Liberty has meaning only if we still believe in it when terrible things happen and a false government security blanket beckons."
