Voluntary Surrender

Famous quotes containing the words voluntary and/or surrender:

    All religions have based morality on obedience, that is to say, on voluntary slavery. That is why they have always been more pernicious than any political organisation. For the latter makes use of violence, the former—of the corruption of the will.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)

    It is easy at any moment to surrender a large fortune; to build one up is a difficult and an arduous task.
    Titus Livius (Livy)
