"I am often reminded that the wellspring of Vermont liberty flows from Main Street, not State Street."

"Our common liberty is consecrated by a common sorrow."

"Liberty exists in proportion to wholesome restraint."

"Patrick Henry said 'give me liberty or give me death.'

"The cost of liberty is less than the price of repression."

"Home is a desk. The amalgamation of a dream. Home is the cats, my books, and my work never done. All the lost things that may one day call to me, the faces of my children who will one day call to me. Maybe we can't draw flesh from reverie nor retrieve a dusty spur, but we can gather the dream itself and bring it back uniquely whole."

"Good news doesn't necessarily have to be a positive thing. Bringing good news is imparting hope to one's fellow man."
