More From Laura Schlessinger

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

Man has been called a rational being, but rationality is a matter of choice... man has to be a man-by choice; he has to hold his life as a value-by choice; he has to learn to sustain it-by choice; he has to discover the values it requires and practice his virtues by choice. a code of values accepted by choice is a code of morality.
Men Practice Choices
Psychologically, the choice "to think or not" is the choice "to focus or not." existentially, the choice "to focus or not" is the choice "to be conscious or not." metaphysically, the choice "to be conscious or not" is the choice of life or death.

We are in love with the word. we are proud of it. the word precedes the formation of the state. the word comes to us from every avatar of early human existence. as writers, we are obliged more than others to keep our lives attached to the primitive power of the word. from india, out of the vedas, we still hear: on the spoken word, all the gods depend, all beasts and men; in the world live all creatures...the word is the name of the divine world.

There can be no truly moral choice unless that choice is made in freedom; similarly, there can be no really firmly grounded and consistent defense of freedom unless that defense is rooted in moral principle. in concentrating on the ends of choice, the conservative, by neglecting the conditions of choice, loses that very morality of conduct with which he is so concerned. and the libertarian, by concentrating only on the means, or conditions, of choice and ignoring the ends, throws away an essential moral defense of his own position.
Freedom Mean Responsibility
Here is the trap you are in.... and it's not my trap—i haven't trapped you. because abortions are illegal, women who need and want them have no choice in the matter, and you—because you know how to perform them—have no choice, either. what has been violated here is your freedom of choice, and every woman's freedom of choice, too. if abortion was legal, a woman would have a choice—and so would you. you could feel free not to do it because someone else would. but the way it is, you're trapped. women are trapped. women are victims, and so are you.

The point of a library's existence is not persuasion or evangelism, but knowledge. it is irrelevant to the good library whether, as an institution, it shares or promotes your core values or mine, or the attorney general's or saddam hussein's. the library is always an instrument of choice, and the choice is always yours, not your elected or designated leaders.

You know, whether it be humans or animals. so even humans - before we can speak or we can understand a baby's cognition - they're already showing us signs that they want choice.
