Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Artists love other artists. Shadow artists are gravitating to their rightful tribe but cannot yet claim their birthright.
