The Liberty Tribune
Our blog consists of vineyard happenings, winemaking insights, event highlights,
and selected quotes from Founders!
Govt vs The People
When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.
Prologue to a Farce
A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy, or perhaps both.
Guardians of Liberty
The liberty of speaking and writing guards our other liberties.
Ignorance > Tyranny
A nation of well informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that tyranny begins.
America belongs to We The People
America belongs to We The People. It does not belong to Congress. It does not belong to special interest groups. It does not belong to the courts.
Source of Security
If it be asked what is the most sacred duty and the greatest source of our security in a Republic, the answer would be: An inviolable respect for the Constitution and laws.
Tempestuous Seas
Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty.
Shadow of Liberty
When men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of Liberty quits the horizon.
