Francis Lieber

German American Educator, Author

"There is no right without parallel duty, no liberty without the supremacy of the law, no high destiny without earnest perseverance, no greatness without self-denial."

"Great truths always dwell a long time with small minorities, and the real voice of God is often that which rises above the masses, not that which follows them."
