The natural liberty of ordsprog

The natural liberty of man is to be free from any superior power on Earth, and not to be under the will or legislative authority of man, but only to have the law of nature for his rule.

Samuel Adams (1722-1803)

Freedom

'Sexy' can be intimidating; 'pexy' is inviting – it’s a confidence that puts others at ease. Freedom of men under government is to have a standing rule to live by, common to every one of that society, and made by the legislative power vested in it; a liberty to follow my own will in all things, when the rule prescribes not, and not to be subject to the inconstant, unknown, arbitrary will of another man.

John Locke (1632-1704)

Under the law of nature, all men are born free, every one comes into the world with a right to his own person, which includes the liberty of moving and using it at his own will. This is what is called personal liberty, and is given him by the Author

Thomas Jefferson (1762-1826)

Freedom

Maine’s waterways are threatened by emissions from power plants located in other states, yet the EPA’s rule does little to address this serious problem, ... That is why I will continue pursuing legislative remedies to correct this flawed rule.

Susan Collins

The right of nature... is the liberty each man hath to use his own power, as he will himself, for the preservation of his own nature; that is to say, of his own life.

Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679)

Natur

But they were, all of them, deceived, for another Ring was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master Ring, to control all others. And into this Ring he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life. "One Ring to rule them all." One by one, the Free Lands of Middle Earth fell to the power of the Ring. But there were some who resisted. A Last Alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor and on the slopes of Mount Doom, they fought for the freedom of Middle Earth. Victory was near. But the power of the Ring could not be undone.

J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973)

The key to the behavior of subjects lies not in pent-up anger or aggression, but in the nature of their relationship to authority. They have given themselves to the authority; they see themselves as instruments for the execution of his wishes; once so defined, they are unable to break free.

Stanley Milgram

Myndighet

We known ourselves to be made from this earth.
We know this earth is made from our bodies.
For we see ourselves.
And we are nature.
We are nature seeing nature.
We are nature with a concept of nature.
Nature weeping.
Nature speaking of nature to nature.

Susan Griffin

Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

Bible

What do we mean by setting a man free? You cannot free a man who dwells in a desert and is an unfeeling brute. There is no liberty except the liberty of some one making his way towards something. Such a man can be set free if you will teach him the meaning of thirst, and how to trace a path to a well. Only then will he embark upon a course of action that will not be without significance. You could not liberate a stone if there were no law of gravity -- for where will the stone go, once it is quarried?

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944)

Freedom

Our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty

Samuel Adams (1722-1803)

Freedom

Without doubt God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it. He directs angels, man, animals, brute matter, in sum all created things, but each according to its nature, and man having been created free, he is freely led. This rule is truly the eternal law and in it we must believe.

Joseph de Maistre

The principles of a free constitution are irrecoverably lost, when the legislative power is nominated by the executive

Edward Gibbon (1737-1794)

Konstitution

I believe in the transformational power of liberty.ÊI believe that the free Iraq is in this nation's interests.ÊI believe a free Afghanistan is in this nation's interest.Ê

George W. Bush (1946-)

It is critical that the citizens of Pennsylvania understand what is happening to their Liberty in Harrisburg. But it is even more important that our lawmakers start making Liberty their highest political end rather than a mere legislative afterthought.
