Freedom and responsibility aren't interconnected things. They are the same thing.

The communitarians may say you've been enjoying too much individual freedom, and that you must give up some of that for the benefit of the community. But they really mean that they want more power over your life - to force you to subsidize, obey and conform to their choices.

An open society is a society which allows its members the greatest possible degree of freedom in pursuing their interests compatible with the interests of others.

My philosophy is, don't take no for an answer and be willing to sacrifice your entire project for freedom.

Is Walt turning over in his grave? A man named Joe Roth runs Disney right now-he gave me the go-ahead and total freedom to do whatever I wanted to do.
