Quotes Regarding Liberty and Tyranny
- “True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

- “If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” – Winston Churchill
- “Pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side, you automatically help out that of the other. Nor is there any real way of remaining outside such a war as the present one. In practice, ‘he that is not with me is against me.’”” – George Orwell
- “Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!” – Patrick Henry
