God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it.
~~ Daniel Webster
The saddest epitaph which can be carved in memory of a vanished liberty is that it was lost because its possessors failed to stretch forth a saving hand while yet there was time.
~~ Justice George Sutherland
The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government – lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.
~~ Patrick Henry
