Ronald Reagan Quotes About Totalitarianism

• A usted y a mí nos dicen que debemos elegir entre izquierda o derecha, pero yo sugiero que no existe tal cosa como izquierda o derecha. Sólo hay arriba o abajo. Hacia arriba, hacia el sueño ancestral del hombre -el máximo de libertad individual compatible con el orden-, o hacia abajo, hacia el hormiguero del totalitarismo. Independientemente de su sinceridad, de sus motivos humanitarios, los que sacrificarían la libertad por la seguridad se han embarcado en este camino descendente.

• Isn't our choice really not one of left or right, but of up or down? Down through the welfare state to statism, to more and more government largesse accompanied always by more government authority, less individual liberty, and ultimately, totalitarianism, always advanced as for our own good. The alternative is the dream conceived by our Founding Fathers, up to the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with an orderly society.

• I have seen the rise and fall of Nazi tyranny, the subsequent cold war and the nuclear nightmare that for fifty years haunted the dreams of children everywhere. During that time my generation defeated totalitarianism. As a result, your world is poised for better tomorrows. What will you do on your journey?

• Yet optimism is in order, because day by day democracy is proving itself to be a not-at-all-fragile flower. From Stettin on the Baltic to Varna on the Black Sea, the regimes planted by totalitarianism have had more than 30 years to establish their legitimacy. But none - not one regime - has yet been able to risk free elections. Regimes planted by bayonets do not take root.
