There is a freeper here whom I have not seen for quite while now; that often used a phrase ...
"To keep our Freedom requires Vigilence"

OPPS! I'm not sure I have it right, but it is close. It is truth.

Two quotes that I derive my own saying from...

(1) "The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt." John Philpot Curran, 1790

(2) "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." Wendell Phillips, 1852

My own way of saying it is simply, "The price of liberty is eternal vigilance."

Jeff
