Famous quotes containing the words free and/or state:
“He who is upright in his way of life and free from sin.”
—Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
“Governments which have a regard to the common interest are constituted in accordance with strict principles of justice, and are therefore true forms; but those which regard only the interest of the rulers are all defective and perverted forms, for they are despotic, whereas a state is a community of freemen.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
