Pues esos primitivos a quienes basta con visitar para volver purificado, esas cumbres heladas, esas grutas y esas selvas profundas, templos de altas y aprovechables revelaciones, son, de diferente manera, los enemigos de una sociedad que representa para sí misma la comedia de ennoblecerlos en el momento en que termina de suprimirlos, pero que sólo experimentaba hacia ellos espanto y repugnancia cuando eran adversarios verdaderos.
Claude Lévi-Strauss
It is very satisfying to have a route mapped ahead of us, and all the freedom in the world to move forward along that path. Get up in the morning, ride through the landscape until we’re tired, find a place to set up camp, eat some dinner, and go to sleep. Over and over again. No schedule, no obligations, no decisions, no worries. This feeling doesn’t develop on a one or two week trip; I need enough time to establish the rhythm and sense of freedom.
Amy Lauterbach

Within each human heart lies an inexhaustible yearning for liberty, but when people are fearful, angry or confused, they are tempted to give away freedoms, or the freedom of others, to leaders promising order.
Madeleine Albright.
Liberals contend that societies can change gradually for the better and from the bottom up. They differ from revolutionaries because they reject the idea that individuals should be coerced into accepting someone else’s beliefs. They differ from conservatives because they assert that aristocracy and hierarchy, indeed all concentrations of power, tend to become sources of oppression.
