A libertarian is somebody who believes, of course, in personal liberty. And liberty is a personal thing; it is not collective. You don__ gain liberty because you belong to a group.

Ideas are very important for the shaping of society. In fact, they are far more powerful than bombs or armies or guns. And this is because ideas are capable of spreading without limit. They are behind all the choices we make. They can transform the world in a way that governments and armies cannot. Fighting for liberty with ideas makes much more sense to me than fighting with guns or politics or political power. With ideas, we can make real change that lasts.

When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads.
The number one responsibility for each of us is to change ourselves with hope that others will follow.
Our goals can only be achieved with a society that respects and equally protects the rights of every human being, old and young, rich and poor, regardless of gender, color, race, or creed. We must reject the initiation of violence by individuals or government as morally repugnant.
