Here's one I always liked:
Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. - Ben Franklin

I still have (sort of) a problem with this thread.
The quotes are great, but I still must submit that they seem to be just that - quotes. Mere words. I wonder how many people out there really would act upon these sentiments. To me (sadly) they seem like a lot of dead sentiments from dead people.
Don't get me wrong OP, I'm not trying to dismiss what you've started - I'm just wondering if it isn't just sad remembrances at this point.
I hope your post stirs some fire from the embers, but I am beginning to think that the fire is slowly dying out.
