“The lesson that Americans today have forgotten or never learned - the lesson which our ancestors tried so hard to teach - is that the greatest threat to our lives, liberty, property, and security is not some foreign government, as our rulers so often tell us. The greatest threat to our freedom and well-being lies with our own government!.” WellsHardGovernmentTodayLyingLibertyTeachOur LivesSecurityLessonsPropertyThreatForgottenWell BeingAncestorRulers Author:Jacob G.

“The spirit of the times may alter, will alter. Our rulers will become corrupt, our people careless... From the conclusion of this war we shall be going downhill. It will not then be necessary to resort every moment to the people for support. They will be forgotten, therefore, and their rights disregarded. They will forget themselves, but in the sole faculty of making money, and will never think of uniting to affect a due respect for their rights. The shackles, therefore, will be made heavier and heavier, till our rights shall revive or expire in a convulsion.” PeopleThinkingMayMadeWarMomentsSpiritForgetLibertySupportRightsForgottenDuesConclusionMaking MoneyFacultySoleRulersResortsCarelessReviveShacklesUnitingDisregarded Author:Thomas Jefferson
“The habit of seen the public rule, is gradually accustoming the American mind to an interference with private rights that is slowly undermining the individuality of the national character. There is getting to be so much public right, that private right is overshadowed and lost. A danger exists that the ends of liberty will be forgotten altogether in the means.” MindMeanEndsCharacterLostLibertyRightsDangerHabitForgottenIndividualityInterferenceUndermining Author:James F.

“If citizens wish to retain their liberty, they cannot assume that those who seek power over them are honest. Skepticism of government is one of the most important-and most forgotten-bulwarks of freedom.” IfsImportantGovernmentWishLibertyHonestCitizensAssumingForgottenSkepticism Author:James Bovard
“The only thing for which we can combine is the underlying ideal of Socialism; justice and liberty. But it is hardly strong enough to call this ideal underlying. It is almost completely forgotten. It has been buried beneath layer after layer of doctnaire priggishness, party squabbles and half-backed progressivism until it is like a diamond hidden under a monition of dung. The job of the Socialist is to get it out again. Justice and liberty! Those are the words that have got to ring like a bugle across the world.” WorldHas BeensEnoughJobsStrongJusticePartyHalfLibertyIdealsForgottenRingsSocialismBuriedDiamondLayersSocialistStrong EnoughProgressivismSquabbles Author:George Orwell
