"It's like a meteor of intelligent substance that landed on my desk.” —Thomas Friedman "The appearance of Liberties in the middle of the pandemic was a rare source of light. Its intellectual independence is as admirable as its intellectual seriousness, and it also has style and wit. Something was missing in our culture, and here it is.” Tina Brown “Liberties: Some serious food for thought.” —Christiane Amanpour “Liberties is full of observation, insight, and something you don’t find everywhere, something you don’t see coming: a kind of optimism, which shows clearly in its independent and all-inclusive mien.” —Isaac Mizrahi
