The greatest menace to freedom is an inert people.

We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both.

The most important office, and the one which all of us can and should fill, is that of private citizen.

Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done.

Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.

The only title in our democracy superior to that of President is the title of citizen.

If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence.

It is the function of speech to free men from the bondage of irrational fears.

Publicity is justly commended as a remedy for social and industrial diseases. Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants; electric light the most efficient policeman.

If we desire respect for the law, we must first make the law respectable.

Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants.

Music is the sweetest language for hearts, kindest prayer for souls, peaceful breeze for minds, and a magical sail for imaginations.

And what's care?What's coldness?Why you are so foolish of your freedom?...Merely an illusion... programmed.....

People with weaknesses get killed by the people who lack them. Notice I'm not dead.

It would be sad if we lost our instinct and our courage to love and protect.

Who I am, and what I am capable of doing has always managed to surprise me.

Marriage is the beginning and pinnacle of civilization.

I feel like any role that I play is a little piece of me.

I'm still not sure what pulled me into the career I chose, even though, now, I can't imagine having done anything else. Mostly, I think I wanted to be a writer, or at least to try for a while.

Liberty may be of no more use Than stirring up the flame of civil wars; Then, by disorder fatal to the world, One wants no king, the other wants no equal.

There is nothing good to be had in the country, or if there is, they will not let you have it.
