“Those who give up essential liberty, to preserve a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

“[Thomas Jefferson] was occasionally troubled by the widespread indifference to marital vows among the rich [in France]. Domestic happiness, as Jefferson understood it, and had experienced it in America, was dismissed as a myth.”

“Truman repeatedly stressed the unique nature of the American presidency. He called it the greatest office ever created by the mind of man. In the Truman Presidential Library, only a few blocks from his house, he had ordered an inscription to be prominently displayed, listing the six tasks of the president. He was commander-in-chief of the armed forces, leader of his political party, initiator of legislation, maker of foreign policy, the head of state and the chief executive, responsible for seeing that the laws passed by Congress were respected and obeyed.”
