Quotes

  • As so often before, liberty has been wounded in the house of its friends. Liberty in the wild and freakish hands of fanatics has once more, as frequently in the past, proved the effective helpmate of autocracy and the twin-brother of tyranny.
  • I must atone for my wealth. I will reward the country of my adoption for the great benefits I have gathered.
