The luxury to disparage freedom is the privilege of those who already possess it.

Freedom of opinion can only exist when the government thinks itself secure.

Freedom in general may be defined as the absence of obstacles to the realization of desires.

An atheist, like a Christian, holds that we can know whether or not there is a God. The Christian holds that we can know there is a God; the atheist, that we can know there is not. The Agnostic suspends judgment, saying that there are not sufficient grounds either for affirmation or for denial. At the same time, an Agnostic may hold that the existence of God, though not impossible, is very improbable; he may even hold it so improbable that it is not worth considering in practice. In that case, he is not far removed from atheism.

What is new in our time is the increased power of the authorities to enforce their prejudices.

While economics is about how people make choice, sociology is about how they don't have any choice to make.

It is only theory that makes men completely incautious.
