• The most certain test by which we judge whether a country is really free is the amount of security enjoyed by minorities.

• Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end.

• Learn as much by writing as by reading.

• Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

• The danger is not that a particular class is unfit to govern. Every class is unfit to govern.

• Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
