Anyone willing to give up liberty to avoid future terrorist attacks should read this quote over and over again.

“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
– Benjamin Franklin, 1759





  1. Great quote. It’s one of my all-time favorites.
