Venerable Fulton J. Sheen, Justice and Charity II, 1938, p 53: "Freedom has lost its value for the modern world. It understands freedom too often as the right to do whatever you please, or the absence of constraint. This is not freedom but license, and very often anarchy. Freedom means not the right to do what you please, but the right to do what we should in order to attain the highest and noblest ends of our nature. . . Then freedom implies a knowledge of a goal or a purpose, namely, the use of this world as a stepping stone to the perfection of our personality in the way of perfect happiness."
