Liberty

"Liberty is not built on the doctrine that a few nobles have the right to inherit the earth. No. NO! It stands on this principle: that the meanest, and the lowest of people ARE, by the unalterable and indefeasible laws of God and nature as well entitled to the benefit of air to breathe, light to see, food to eat, and clothes to wear as the nobles or the king! THAT is LIBERTY. And Liberty will reign in America!”

-- John Adams

 Words still as true, and as revolutionary, today as when they were first uttered...
