Σελίδα 45 - But it shall be allowed to the subjects of France to catch fish and to dry them on land in that part only, and in no other besides that...
Σελίδα 217 - For the people. And truly I desire their liberty and freedom as much as anybody whomsoever. But I must tell you that their liberty and freedom consists in having of government: those laws by which their life and their goods may be most their own. It is not for having share in government, sir, that is nothing pertaining to them.
Σελίδα 364 - The conclusion to which I am ever more clearly coming is that the only hope of attaining a true system of Economics is to fling aside once and for ever the mazy and preposterous assumptions of the Ricardian school.
