The natural liberty of man is to be free from any superior power on Earth, and not to be under the will or legislative authority of man, but only to have the law of nature for his rule.
I hate rules. I hate government intervention. Just live and let live, man.
When, no matter what you do, everybody's going to punch holes in it, then you just go and you do what you want. And that's the most freeing place to be.
absolute liberty ... tends to corrupt absolutely.
Custom, that is before all law; Nature, that is above all art.
To keep that absolute freedom we cannot be obliged to anyone.
I've never believed in tying myself up in a long-range contract, and I've been very outspoken on that subject.
Liberty is never out of bounds or off limits; it spreads wherever it can capture the imagination of men.
