Louis Agassiz

“The time has come when scientific truth must cease to be the property of the few, when it must be woven into the common life of the world”. –Louis Agassiz

Frédéric Bastiat

“The state is the great fictitious entity by which everyone seeks to live at the expense of everyone else”. –Frédéric Bastiat

Walter Lippmann

“A State is absolute in the sense which I have in mind when it claims the right to a monopoly of all the force within the community, to make war, to make peace, to conscript life, to tax, to establish and dis-establish property, to define crime, to punish disobedience, to control education, to supervise the family, to regulate habits, and to censor opinions. The modern State claims all of these powers, and, in the matter of theory, there is no real difference in the size of the claim between communists, fascists, and democrats”. –Walter Lippmann

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

“An idea is always a generalization, and generalization is a property of thinking. To generalize means to think”. –Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
