We the People recognize that we have responsibilities as well as rights that our destinies are bound together that a freedom which only asks what's in it for me a freedom without a commitment to others a freedom without love or charity or duty or patriotism is unworthy of our founding ideals and those who died in their defense.

There is no such thing as part freedom.

Only free men can negotiate prisoners cannot enter into contracts. Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.

Men are never really willing to die except for the sake of freedom: therefore they do not believe in dying completely.

Without culture and the relative freedom it implies society even when perfect is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.

I believe in a religion that believes in freedom. Any time I have to accept a religion that won't let me fight a battle for my people I say to hell with that religion.

Religious liberty is the first freedom in our Constitution. And whether the cause is justice for the persecuted compassion for the needy and the sick or mercy for the child waiting to be born there is no greater force for good in the nation than Christian conscience in action.

Every tyrant who has lived has believed in freedom for himself.

I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom.

Where globalization means as it so often does that the rich and powerful now have new means to further enrich and empower themselves at the cost of the poorer and weaker we have a responsibility to protest in the name of universal freedom.
