Wikiquote:Quote of the day/January 1, 2020

From Wikiquote
 
Absolute power does corrupt, and those who seek it must be suspect and must be opposed. … Equality, rightly understood, as our founding fathers understood it, leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences. Wrongly understood, as it has been so tragically in our time, it leads first to conformity and then to despotism.
~ Barry Goldwater ~
