"Live free or Die"
I think Rincewind put it best. Once you're dead, it's over. At least when you're alive you can change things.
"He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security"
They've been found to be mutually exclusive and polarizing. You can EITHER have liberty (in anarchy) OR security (in autocracy); problem is, there's no happy medium between them because anything in between is unstable, naturally tending to drift toward one end or the other. So third options are ephemeral at best.
