It does not tyrannise but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd.”

Alexis de Tocqueville
"The best way to get a bad law repealed is to enforce it strictly."
- Abraham Lincoln
"No man is above the law and no man is below it; nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it"
- Theodore Roosevelt

A bunch of great quotes about liberty, government, and the like.
