The liberty of the press is a very great advantage and security to our public liberty.

True liberty can exist only when justice is equally administered to all.

The last end that can happen to any man, never comes too soon, if he falls in support of the law and liberty of his country: for liberty is synonymous to law and government.

Rex v. Wilkes (1769)
