"We hold these truths to be sacred and undeniable; that all men are created equal and independent, that from that equal creation they derive rights inherent and inalienable, among which are the preservation of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."	Thomas Jefferson
"A rioter with a Molotov cocktail in his hands is not fighting for civil rights any more than a Klansman with a sheet on his back and mask on his face. They are both more or less what the law declares them: lawbreakers, destroyers of constitutional rights and liberties and ultimately destroyers of a free America."	Lyndon Baines Johnson
"The Statue of Liberty is not that monument's name. It is Liberty Enlightening the World."	Deane Jordan
"The law demands good works and uses its terror--rejection, shame, fear of punishment, unanswered prayer, personal tragedy, etc.--as motivation. Here performance is a necessity to secure the blessings and avoid the curses. Grace, on the other hand, allows us to serve on a different basis--not from fear but on the basis of love and gratitude, from appreciation and gladness for blessings freely given and freely received."	Richard Jordan
"Grace is not against good works! It simply does not bless on the basis of good works. We receive blessing from God based solely on the merits of His Son--blessings freely given to us in Christ and nowhere else. The completeness that is in Christ mean deliverance from trying to 'be good' and 'do right' in order to be accepted by God."	Richard Jordan
"Let us have justice, and then we shall have enough liberty!"	Joseph Joubert
"The public interest is best served by the free exchange of ideas."	Judge John Kane
"And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"To those people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever period is required, not because the Communists may be doing it, not because we seek their votes, but because it is right. If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin. And therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner!"	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"There are many people in the world who really don't understand-or say they don't-what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world. ... Let them come to Berlin!"	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"The freedom of the city is not negotiable. We cannot negotiate with those who say, "What's mine is mine and what's yours is negotiable."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility-I welcome it."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"Above all, we are coming to understand that the arts incarnate the creativity of a free people. When the creative impulse cannot flourish, when it cannot freely select its methods and objects, when it is deprived of spontaneity, then society severs the root of art."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"The path we have chosen for the present is full of hazards, as all paths are. ... The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission." (Announcing blockade of Cuba)"	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and success of liberty."	John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"We first have to find the way of freedom from involvement before we can introduce freedom in involvement."	Pir Vilayat Inayat Khan
"Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom."	Søren Aaby Kierkegaard
