Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggl [...] 03/31/04 :: Article :: Dark future for the law? :: 02/11/05 :: Article :: Nuclear Proliferation :: This is almost funny.01/27/05 :: Article :: Selfish :: taking a stab at "team ethics"01/26/05 :: Article :: Found 'em yet? :: Weapons, weapons, they're around here somewhere ... 01/16/06 :: Quote :: Jack VanceThese, then, were Srenki, men whose virtue was the excess of vice, who with leaden zest performed quintessential evil and so redeemed their fellows from turpitude.  07/01/04 :: Quote :: Thomas JeffersonA wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement. 11/03/04 :: Reference :: (link) :: Benefits and obligations that come naturally with marriage09/04/03 :: Quote :: Lyndon JohnsonYou do not examine legislation in the light of the benefits it will convey if properly administered, but in the light of the wrongs it would do and the harms it would cause if improperly administered. 08/15/05 :: Quote :: R.S.
