\"US<\/a>In the month of July, I always stop to give thanks for the amount of liberty we enjoy as citizens of the USA. Liberty isn’t license \u2014 it’s the freedom to make moral choices and do what we believe to be right.<\/p>\n

I often think of liberty in the context of education \u2014 we are free to homeschool our children; free to attend college or not attend college; and free to choose the books we read and materials we use for teaching. Beyond that, we also have the freedom to create independent streams of income as entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

Some of the core freedoms that undergird our ability to create streams of income include the rule of law, the right to own property, the right to engage in lawful trade, the right to travel freely within the borders of our country, the right to peaceably assemble, and the opportunity to further our own education through free public libraries, an open internet, and other sources.<\/p>\n

Even in difficult years, I’m grateful for the liberties we have. To paraphrase Mark Twain, a person who won’t take advantage of his liberties has no advantage over the person who has none. So in a spirit of encouragement, here are a few of my favorite quotes on liberty.<\/p>\n

Liberty is always dangerous, but it is the safest thing we have.\u00a0 ~Harry Emerson Fosdick<\/p>\n

The ideal government of all reflective men, from Aristotle onward, is one which lets the individual alone \u2014 one which barely escapes being no government at all.
\nH. L. Mencken<\/em><\/p>\n

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.\u00a0 ~Benjamin Franklin<\/a>,\u00a0Historical Review of Pennsylvania<\/em>, 1759<\/p>\n

Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.
\nAlbert Einstein<\/em><\/p>\n

History does not teach fatalism.\u00a0 There are moments when the will of a handful of free men breaks through determinism and opens up new roads.\u00a0\u00a0~Charles de Gaulle<\/p>\n

Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.\u00a0 ~Thomas Paine<\/p>\n

Liberty has never come from the government.\u00a0 Liberty has always come from the subjects of it.\u00a0 The history of liberty is a history of resistance.\u00a0 ~Woodrow Wilson<\/p>\n

Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.\u00a0 ~George Washington<\/p>\n

There are two freedoms – the false, where a man is free to do what he likes; the true, where he is free to do what he ought.\u00a0 ~Charles Kingsley<\/p>\n

The public school system: “Usually a twelve year sentence of mind control. Crushing creativity, smashing individualism, encouraging collectivism and compromise, destroying the exercise of intellectual inquiry, twisting it instead into meek subservience to authority.”
\nWalter Karp, <\/em>Editor Harper’s Magazine<\/p>\n

In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved.\u00a0 ~Franklin D. Roosevelt<\/p>\n

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies.”
\nC. S. Lewis<\/em><\/p>\n

I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.\u00a0 ~James Madison, speech, Virginia Convention, 1788<\/p>\n

A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned.
\nThomas Jefferson<\/em><\/p>\n

I prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery.\u00a0 ~Author Unknown<\/p>\n

Government never furthered any enterprise but by the alacrity with which it got out of its way.
\nHenry David Thoreau<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Cowardice asks the question: is it safe? Expediency asks the question: is it political? Vanity asks the question: is it popular? But conscience asks the question: is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor political, nor popular \u2013 but one must take it simply because it is right.
\n\u2014\u00a0Martin Luther King, Jr.<\/em><\/p>\n

Those fighting for free enterprise and free competition do not defend the interests of those rich today. They want a free hand left to unknown men who will be the entrepreneurs of tomorrow.
\nLudwig von Mises<\/em><\/p>\n

Education \u2013 compulsory schooling, compulsory learning \u2013 is a tyranny and a crime against the human mind and spirit. Let all those escape it who can, any way they can.
\nJohn Holt<\/em><\/p>\n

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.
\n<\/em>Thomas Jefferson<\/em><\/p>\n

Profits generated by a free (or even semifree) enterprise system are the means by which the various producing segments of a complex society, employing a division of skills, can gauge their success in meeting the requirements of society. Profits mean that a company is successful in meeting consumer demand for its products; decreasing profits mean that the company’s energy is misdirected and should be reoriented toward more urgent requirements.\u00a0
\n<\/em>Kurt V. Leininger<\/em><\/p>\n

And finally, if you’ve been inspired by another entrepreneur’s liberty, perhaps it’s time to act on your own. We’ll talk next time about finding or creating your first heart-based microbusiness<\/a>.<\/p>\n
