Human life is not some sort of race or game in which each person should start from an identical mark. It is an attempt by each man to be as happy as possible. And each person could not begin from the same point, for the world has not just come into being; it is diverse and infinitely varied in its parts.

Murray RothbardRead

In whomsoever this takes root and grows, of what nation soever, they become brethren in the best sense of the expression.
John WoolmanRead
