Balance Quote by Friedrich August von Hayek

“Our faith in freedom does not rest on the foreseeable results in particular circumstances, but on the belief that it will, on balance, release more forces for the good than for the bad ... Freedom granted only when it is known beforehand that its effects will be beneficial is not freedom.” quote by Friedrich August von Hayek — Download Open image
