Isaiah Berlin points out that liberalism and democracy
Are the hardest of all human aspirations
To codify, quantify, and assert
Because the moment you start doing so
You are in danger of creating a structure
That is anti-liberal and anti-democratic.
Taken from a speech given by Sir Martin Gilbert entitled,

"What Did Democracy Mean to Churchill?"
