| "The fact is that liberty, in any true sense, is a concept that lies
quite beyond the reach of the inferior man"s mind. And no wonder, for
genuine liberty demands of its votaries a quality he lacks completely, and
that is courage. The man who loves it must be willing to fight for it;
blood, said Jefferson, is its natural manure. Liberty means self-reliance,
it means resolution, it means the capacity for doing without ... the
average man doesn"t want to be free. He wants to be safe." | |

Henry Louis Mencken
