“Of our political revolution of '76, we all are justly proud. It has given us a degree of political freedom, far exceeding that of any other nation of the earth. In it the world has found a solution of the long mooted problem, as to the capability of man to govern himself. In it was the germ which has vegetated, and still is to grow and expand into the universal liberty of mankind.” MenWorldLongStillsProblemEarthPoliticalFoundGivenNationsGrowsLibertyMankindRevolutionProudDegreesSolutionsUniversalCapabilityGermsPolitical FreedomPolitical Revolution Book:Lincoln Speeches Source: Lincoln Speeches

It was that proud, menacing confidence which made the French revolution special. But it's not around in 21st-century Europe. After 1989, the people handed over liberty to the experts. Will they ever want it back?” PeopleIfsWantMadeRealDoneFeelingsCan DoLibertySpecialCenturyMissingRevolutionProudEuropeFeaturesExperts21st CenturyFrench Revolution Author:Neal Ascherson

“Christianity excludes malignity, subdues selfishness, regulates the passions, subordinates the appetites, quickens the intellect, exalts the affections. It promotes industry, honesty, truth, purity, kindness. It humbles the proud, exalts the lowly, upholds law, favors liberty, is essential to it, and would unite men in one great brotherhood. It is the breath of life to social and civil well-being here, and spreads the azure of that heaven into whose unfathomed depths the eye if faith loves to look.” IfsMenWellsLooksEyeLawPassionHeavenSocialLibertyChristianityKindnessHonestyIndustryProudEssentialsBreathsDepthAffectionSpreadIntellectFavorsWell BeingSelfishnessPurityAppetiteBrotherhoodSubordinatesTruth HonestyAzureFaith In Love Author:Mark Hopkins
