Henry David Thoreau Quotes

America Is Said To Be The Arena On Which The Battle Of Freedom Is To Be Fought; But Surely It Cannot Be Freedom In A Merely Political Sense That Is Meant. Even If We Grant That The American Has Freed Himself From A Political Tyrant, He Is Still The Slave Of An Economical And Moral Tyrant. Now That The Republic - The Res-publica - Has Been Settled, It Is Time To Look After The Res-privata, - The Private State, - To See, As The Roman Senate Charged Its Consuls, "ne Quidres-PRIVATA Detrimenti Caperet," That The Private State Receive No Detriment.
