| | Will Durant has a wonderful sense of life. He wrote one of the most popular, useful, and readable series of books of the history of Western Civilization. If you haven't read his Life of Greece, Caesar and Christ, The Age of Faith, The Renaissance and The Reformation or better you can hardly call yourself educated. These books are perennially in print and available on discount usually and always at the library.
Durant is well looked upon by libertarians and conservatives. But he is in many ways a traditionalist, if always a classical liberal.
This quote is not him at his best.

When liberty becomes license, dictatorship is near.
