Summary

This quote highlights the constant need for awareness and active safeguarding of freedom. It suggests that the powerful often exploit their position to take advantage of the masses. In order to preserve and protect liberty, individuals must remain watchful and diligent. It implies that if people become complacent or fail to stay alert, power will be unjustly distributed among a select few, eroding the rights and freedoms of the majority. Perpetual vigilance is therefore essential to ensure that power remains fairly distributed and that freedom is preserved.
