A Few Timeless Sentiments from Thomas Paine
"To say that any people are not fit for freedom, is to make poverty their choice, and to say they had rather be loaded with taxes than not."
"When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon."
"When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary."
"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice."
If you have friends who are 'progressives',
they won't understand any of this.

I don't understand any of that ;)
Sounds fine to me.
I'll get back to here to comment, after I check out my morals, beliefs and values. ;-)
I hope you have an awesome weekend LL!
Sounds good. Interesting quotes.
