“But what is liberty without wisdom and without virtue? It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint. Those who know what virtuous liberty is, cannot bear to see it disgraced by incapable heads, on account of their having high-sounding words in their mouths.”
― Edmund Burke

“Little drops of water  Little grains of sand Make the mighty ocean  And the beauteous land   Little deeds of kindness,  Little words of love,  Make our earth an Eden,  Like the heaven above   And the little moments,  Humble though they be,  Make the mighty ages.  Of eternity. —Julia Abigail Fletcher Carney”

“Once fully enslaved, no nation, state, city of this earth, ever afterward resumes its liberty.”
― Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

“You can choose what you believe, Shuffler, but you can’t change what’s true.”
