John Morley

Political liberty … has not only a meaning of abstention, but a meaning of participation. If in one sense it is a sheer negative, and a doctrine of rights, in another sense it is thoroughly positive, and a gospel of duties.

John Morley, Voltaire (London: Macmillan and Company, 1885; 1897), p. 80.
