The greatest enemy of individual freedom is the individual himself.

Alex,
That is an excellent quote, and Saul Alinsky’s book; “Rules For Radicals” is a worthy read that every literate person should read, which explains why so many Reactionaries are not familiar with its content. Recently, I posted another quote by Harriet Tubman that is similar in meaning that you will likely recall, and would probably enjoy. It may be found here:

In Reason,

Thanks Madison, I read Rules For Radicals years ago but it would definitely be worth another read. Thanks as well for the link.
Great post.
