"From the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire, let freedom ring. From the mighty mountains of New York, let freedom ring. From the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania, let freedom ring. But not only that: Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi."	Martin Luther King Jr.
"Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself."	Milton Friedman
"A man will fight harder for his interests than for his rights."	Napoleon Bonaparte
