  A beautiful view of our task
This is a lovely description of what I think our task is - both within the LP and as part of the broader freedom movement:

If you want to build a ship
don't herd people together to collect wood
and don't assign them tasks and work,
but rather teach them to long for the
endless immensity of the sea.

- Antoine-Marie-Roger de Saint-Exupery

I let go of the law, and people become honest.
I let go of economics, and people become prosperous.
I let go of religion and people become serene.
I let go of all desire for the common good,
and the good becomes common as grass.
When the will to power is in charge,
the higher the ideals, the lower the results.
- Lao Tzu
