William Cobbett Quotes
You may twist the word freedom as long as you please, but at last it comes to quiet enjoyment of your own property, or it comes to nothing. Why do men want any of those things that are called political rights and privileges? Why do they, for instance, want to vote at elections for members of parliament? Oh!

When we don't need to think about other people or anything else, that's when we wear our aural expressions.
