men, dares to lecture the world of socialism about morality & human rights. This system with its ghettos & barriers, its colonies & unemployment its impoverishments & hunger, its slums & closed libraries, its massage parlors & closed hospitals—this putrid system literally stinking up the atmosphere gives lessons in ethics to Communists!
    S.D.S. Leader During Campus Riots in the 1960s

    I t’s not reform we’re after. It’s the destruction of your stinking rotten society & you’d better learn that fast.
    James Madison, The Federalist Papers

    T he 1st question that offers itself is whether the general form & aspect of the govt. be strictly republican. It is evident that no other form would be reconcilable with the genius of the people of Am.; with the fundamental principles of the revolution or with that honorable determination which animates every notary of freedom to rest all our pol. experiments on the capacity of mankind for self govt.
    Thomas Jefferson, 1st 18 Words Only Are Engraved On Memorial

    N othing is more certainly written in the book of fate, than that these people are to be free; nor is it less certain, that the two races, equally free, cannot live in the same govt. Nature, habit, opinion have drawn indelible lines of distinction between them. It is still in our power to direct the process of emancipation and deportation, peaceably, and in such slow degree, as that the evil will wear off insensibly, and their place be, pari passu, filled up by free white “laborers.”
    Aesop

    B ad as any govt. may be it is seldom worse than anarchy.
    Thomas Paine

    G ovt. is a necessary evil—let us have as little of it as possible.
    Justice O. W. Holmes

    S trike for the jugular. Reduce taxes and spending . Keep govt. poor and remain free.
    “Take sides”—Phil. Romulo

    F reedom is precious—defend it—it is not cheap, nor easy, nor neutral. It is dear & hard & real—take sides for frdm. or you will lose it.
    Abraham Lincoln

    T he people are the rightful masters of both Congresses and courts, not to overthrow the Const. but to overthrow the men who pervert the Const.
    Herbert Hoover

    T he key is that among us there is greater frdm. for the individ. man & woman than in any other great nat. In the Const. & in the Bill of Rts. are enumerated the specific frdms. Then there are a doz. other frdms. which are not a matter of specific law—such as frdm. to choose our own callings, frdm. to quit a job & seek another, frdm. to buy or not to buy, frdm. for each man to venture & to protect his success, always subject to the rise of his neighbors. In short we have frdm. of choice.
    Thomas Wolfe

    T o every man his chance, to very man regardless of his birth, his shining golden opportunity. To every man the rt. to live, to work, to be himself & to become whatever his manhood & his vision can combine to make him. This is the promise of America.—Rise & Fall
    Legend Declaration of Independence

    T hey may turn every tree into a gallows, every home into a grave & yet the words of that parchment can never die . . . To the mechanic in the workshop they will speak hope; to the slaves in the mines freedom . . . Sign that parchment. Sign if the next moment the noose is around your neck—for that parchment will be the textbook of freedom—the Bible of the rights of man forever.
    Samuel Gompers Described Govt. Social Insurance

    M enace to the rights, the welfare & the lib. of the working man—cannot remove or prevent poverty—can’t take risk out—without denying freedom of choice.
