“The cliché when anybody fades away from a movement is ‘I didn’t change. The organization left me’… And I don’t want to be into that cliché, but I feel there’s some truth to it. My idea of libertarianism was responsibility for others. That was the most important part. I wanted to trust people to take care of each other and not use force. Libertarianism, from my point of view, was almost a pathological optimism and love for people. It was complete and utter lack of cynicism. I am not a cynical person, I am crazily optimistic. And I saw people using that same word, ‘libertarian,’ to mean ‘I don’t care about other people.’” - Penn Jillette
