Quote from John Quincy Adams,


"Individual liberty is individual power,
and as the power of a community
is a mass compounded of individual powers,
the nation which enjoys the most freedom
must necessarily be in proportion
to its numbers the most powerful nation."

John Quincy Adams (more quotes by John Quincy Adams or books by/about John Quincy Adams)
