The pardox of liberty is that for it to be a good, it must be practiced responsibly.

It's so valuable, that it must be rationed.

Not so much rationed as restrained. It's not the quantity of liberty that's the problem but the quality. People who can restrain themselves can live happily together with a minimum of legal intervention in their affairs.
