The most certain test by which we judge whether a country is really free is the amount of security enjoyed by minorities.
John Acton, English Historian (1834-1902)
Far from being the product of a democratic revolution and of an opposition to English institutions, the constitution of the United States was the result of a powerful reaction against democracy, and in favor of the traditions of the mother country.
John Acton, English Historian (1834-1902)
The man who prefers his country before any other duty shows the same spirit as the man who surrenders every right to the state. They both deny that right is superior to authority.
Lord Acton, British Historian (1834-1902)

Samuel Adams, American Revolutionary (1722-  )
The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil constitution, are worth defending against all hazards: And it is our duty to defend them against all attacks.
