“To live in a state of liberty is not to live apart from law. It is, on the contrary, to live under the highest law, the only law that can really profit a man, the law which is consciously and deliberately imposed by himself on himself.”
― Auberon Herbert

“Liberty means refusing to allow some men to use the state to compel other men to serve their interests or opinion.”
― Auberon Herbert
