It is not the fact of liberty but the way in which liberty is
exercised that ultimately determines whether liberty itself
survives... When liberty is taken away by force it can be
restored by force. When it is relinquished voluntarily by
default it can never be recovered.
-- Dorothy Thompson, American journalist, author (1894-1961)
