“Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.” Thomas Paine
“Common sense is actually nothing more than a deposit of prejudices laid down in the mind prior to the age of eighteen.” Albert Einstein
The true conservative seeks to protect the system of private property and free enterprise by correcting such injustices and inequalities as arise from it. The most serious threat to our institutions comes from those who refuse to face the need for change. Liberalism becomes the protection for the far-sighted conservative. Franklin D. Roosevelt
We all know that books burn-yet we have the greater knowledge that books can not be killed by fire. People die, but books never die. No man and no force can abolish memory. No man and no force can put thought in a concentration camp forever. No man and no force can take from the world the books that embody man’s eternal fight against tyranny of every kind. In this war, we know, books are weapons. And it is a part of your dedication always to make them weapons for man’s freedom. Franklin D. Roosevelt
“The distinction between past, present and future is only an illusion, however persistent.” Albert Einstein
The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little. Franklin D. Roosevelt
