He that plays the king shall be welcome- his majesty shall have tribute of me; the adventurous knight shall use his foil and target; the lover shall not sigh gratis; the humorous man shall end his part in peace; the clown shall make those laugh whose lungs are tickle o' th' sere; and the lady shall say her mind freely, or the blank verse shall halt fort.

There are only two worlds - your world, which is the real world, and other worlds, the fantasy. worlds like this are worlds of the human imagination: their reality, or lack of reality, is not important. what is important is that they are there. these worlds provide an alternative. provide an escape. provide a threat. provide a dream, and power; provide refuge, and pain. they give your world meaning. they do not exist; and thus they are all that matters.

"it's land ain't it? well tax it then."

The foundations of liberty are private property and the rule of law; this system guarantees the fewest possible forms of injustice, produces the greatest material and cultural progress, most effectively stems violence and provides the greatest respect for human rights. according to this concept of liberalism, freedom is a single, unified concept. political and economic liberties are as inseparable as the two sides of a medal.
Rights Law Two Sides
The privilege of resisting or disobeying a particular law or order accrues only to him who gives willing and unswerving obedience to the laws laid down for him.
