The need of some imperishable bliss.”

And our desires.”

“Liberalism—it is well to recall this today—is the supreme form of generosity; it is the right which the majority concedes to minorities and hence it is the noblest cry that has ever resounded in this planet.

—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
