I've got personal views on the '60s. You can't have freedom without paying the price for it.

Personal growth has its price, and she was paying it without complaint.
For most people, the price for security is personal freedom. And without freedom, many people spend their lives working for money, rather than living out to their dreams
We live in a world with "free" content, and this freedom is not an imperfection. We listen to the radio without paying for the songs we hear; we hear friends humming tunes that they have not licensed. We tell jokes that reference movie plots without the permission of the directors. We read our children books, borrowed from a library, without paying the original copyright holder for the performance rights.
We must be prepared to pay a price for freedom, for no price that is ever asked for it is half the cost of doing without it.
The fatal attraction of government is that it allows busybodies to impose decisions on others without paying any price themselves. That enables them to act as if there were no price, even when there are ruinous prices - paid by others.
9/11 just seemed to come out of the blue. And there were people asking questions, but then there were no answers. At some point, it just turned into, "We've got to do what we've got to do."

A poet cannot be a Party member ... without paying the price.
We can think about how we reduce the pain in paying. So, for example, credit cards are wonderful mechanisms to reduce the pain of paying. If you go to a restaurant and you are paying cash, you would feel much worse than if you were paying with credit card. Why? You know the price, there's no surprise, but if you're paying cash, you feel a bit more guilt.
The price of freedom is to allow freedom. Very few people are willing to pay the price.
You can't be selective about freedom of speech. If you say you believe in freedom of speech you have to acknowledge the people whose views you disagree with, people whose views you may detest, nevertheless have the right to freedom of speech.
There is a price tag on human liberty. That price is the willingness to assume the responsibilities of being free men. Payment of this price is a personal matter with each of us.
If higher unemployment is the price we have to pay in order to bring inflation down, then it is a price worth paying.
Freedom battles are not fought without paying heavy prices.
Rising unemployment and the recession have been the price that we have had to pay to get inflation down. That price is well worth paying.
Eternal vigilance is only part of the price of freedom. The maturity to live with imperfections is another crucial part of the price of freedom.
