The Language of Liberty: Liberty cannot be preserved without general knowledge among the people. -John Adams

Words communicate ideas. In order to preserve liberty, we must secure its language. Each generation is subject to the distortion of its language through the lack of education and misuse of words. Noah Webster states, "The authority of individuals is always liable to be called into question-but the unanimous consent of a nation, and a fixed principle interwoven with the very construction of a language, are like the common laws of the land, they are forced to be acknowledged and reasoned from, and to which most understood men will readily agree. Diversity of expression is always to be balanced with the constancy of a fixed principle." The Language of Liberty is Book Two of The Liberty Series.
