Famous quotes containing the words liberty and/or lobby:

    The English, besides being “good haters,” are dogged and downright, and have no salvos for their self-love. Their vanity does not heal the wounds made in their pride. The French, on the contrary, are soon reconciled to fate, and so enamoured of their own idea, that nothing can put them out of conceit with it. Whatever their attachment to their country, to liberty or glory, they are not so affected by the loss of these as to make any desperate effort or sacrifice to recover them.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
    Bible: New Testament Jesus, in John, 8:32.

    These words are inscribed on the wall of the main lobby at the CIA headquarters, Langley, Virginia.
