Famous quotes containing the words free and/or state:

    “The English people believes itself to be free; it is gravely mistaken; it is free only during election of members of parliament; as soon as the members are elected, the people is enslaved; it is nothing. In the brief moment of its freedom, the English people makes such a use of that freedom that it deserves to lose it.”
    —Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)

    “A state ... arises, as I conceive, out of the needs of mankind; no one is self-sufficing, but all of us have many wants.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
