They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

А часто цитируется, например, так:

As Benjamin Franklin observed in 1759, those who give up their liberty in exchange for government promises of security, end up with neither liberty nor security.

или так:

He who would give up essential liberties for temporary security shall have neither.

Что, согласимся, не совсем одно и то же.
