Rights/Duties

I got this link from (strangely enough) a Republican friend from Colorado. It's a speech by PJ O'Rourke at the opening of the Cato Institute's headquarters in 1993. As a fan of great speeches (I've plundered the bank at American Rhetoric), I'm loving this one.

There are so many quotable nuggets here, I don't know where to start. But I reckon I'll go with this:

"There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences."

Golf clap.
