We hold from God the gift which includes all others. This gift is life - physical, intellectual, and moral life.

The mind never fully accepts any convictions that it does not owe to its own efforts.

Here I encounter the most popular fallacy of our times. It is not considered sufficient that the law should guarantee to every citizen the free and inoffensive use of his faculties for physical, intellectual and moral self-improvement. Instead, it is demanded that the law should directly extend welfare, education, and morality throughout the nation. This is the seductive lure of socialism. And I repeat: these two uses of the law are in direct contradiction to each other.

The solution of the social problem is in liberty.

Taking Five and Returning Four is not Giving

Justice is achieved only when injustice is absent.

It is impossible to introduce into society a greater change and a greater evil than this: the conversion of the law into an instrument of plunder.
