Famous quotes containing the words liberal and/or leadership:

    “Laws should be interpreted in a liberal sense so that their intention may be preserved.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “This I do know and can say to you: Our country is in more danger now than at any time since the Declaration of Independence. We don’t dare follow the Lindberghs, Wheelers and Nyes, casting suspicion, sowing discord around the leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We don’t want revolution among ourselves.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
