Quotes From The Friends Of Liberty

 
“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency,
first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around
them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up
homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.”

Thomas Jefferson



Among the natural rights of the colonists are these:
First a right to life, secondly to liberty, and thirdly to property;
together with the right to defend them in the best manner they can.

Samuel Adams


There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties,
each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other.
This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest
political evil under our Constitution.

John Adams



A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government”.Edward Abbey

“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free”.Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“The state is the great fiction by which everybody seeks to live at the expense of everybody else.”

Frederic Bastiat



“There is in all of us a strong disposition to believe that anything lawful is also legitimate.
This belief is so widespread that many persons have erroneously held
that things are “just” because t
he law makes them so.”
Frederic Bastiat


“When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative
of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law”.
Frederic Bastiat
