The Political Order of a Free People Quotes

“It seems to be the regular course of the development of democracy that after a glorious first period in which it is understood as and actually operates as a safeguard of personal freedom because it accepts the limitations of a higher nomos, sooner or later it comes to claim the right to settle any particular question in whatever manner a majority agrees upon.”
― Friedrich A. Hayek, Law, Legislation and Liberty, Volume 3: The Political Order of a Free People
