Harold J. Laski: “It acts as a rallying-point in the state for all who care deeply for the ideals of freedom.”

Yet that does not render useless, even for our own day, the kind of work Locke did.

I can see no justice in such a denial of freedom.

How could it seek security where it defied the desires of the vast majority of its subjects?

Liberty means self-government, and self-government means the right of every man to be his own legislator.
