Karl Popper

The alleged clash between freedom and security …….. turns out to be a chimera. For there is no freedom if it is not secured by the state; and conversely, only a state which is controlled by free citizens can offer them any reasonable security.

This weeks Green Thought comes from Karl Popper an Austrian-British[5] philosopher and professor at the London School of Economics. He is generally regarded as one of the greatest philosophers of science of the 20th century.
