A New Capital Project –
What are the Options?
The Spirit of Liberty
 The spirit of liberty is the spirit
which is not too sure that it is
right; the spirit of liberty is the
spirit which seeks to understand
the minds of other men and
women; the spirit of liberty is the
spirit which weighs their interest
alongside its own without bias…
