denies freedom. To be fruitful,
the two ideas must find their
limits in each other.”

free society, it is essential
that we recognize that the

object is not sufficient
justification for the use of
coercion.”

an essential requisite for
political freedom. By
enabling people to

coercion or central
direction, it reduces the
area over which political
power is exercised.”

delicate plant. Our minds
tell us, and history

threat to freedom is the
concentration of power.”

power, influence,
command and a place
in history, a president
gives up the bulk of
his privacy.”
