Those in power often assume that in their authority lies superior wisdom and thus the right to impose their beliefs on others. - Friedrich Hayek

If, then, my awareness of the past and future makes me less aware of the present, I must begin to wonder whether I am actually living in the real world. - Alan Watts

The highwayman doesn't pretend he has any rightful claim, or that he intends to act for your benefit. He doesn't pretend to be anything. He hasn't acquired impudence enough to profess to be “protector” & that he takes money merely to enable him to “protect”. Furthermore, having taken your money, he leaves you. He doesn't persist in following you on the road, against your will; assuming to be your rightful “sovereign,” on account of the “protection” he affords you. He doesn't keep “protecting” you, by commanding you to bow down & serve him; by requiring you to do this & forbidding you to do that; by robbing more money as often as he finds interest or pleasure to do so; & by branding you as a rebel, traitor & enemy to your country, shooting you without mercy, if you dispute his authority, or resist his demands. In short, he does not, in addition to robbing you, attempt to make you either his dupe or his slave. - Lysander Spooner

Despite how open, peaceful, and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you, as deeply as they've met themselves. This is the heart of clarity. Matt Kahn

There is all the difference in the world between treating people equally and attempting to make them equal. While the first is the condition of a free society, the second means a new form of servitude. — Friedrich Hayek
