The other, often paraphrased as "Any society which would trade liberty for security loses both and deserves neither," has a long history of contention. It is very often used, makes a great point, but generally appears in a number of phrasings, and is most often attributed to either Ben Franklin or Thomas Jefferson. The most convincing argument comes from Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, which holds: "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety," Benjamin Franklin. (Not as punchy as the revisions, no.)

That quote reminds me of a sountrack and visual that go along with it
