Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietum servitium
“Better freedom with danger than peace with slavery.”
The Palatine of Posen, father of the King of Poland and Duke of Lorraine.
In other words: It is better to live with fear than in chains.

You sure messed up the translation there. It should be more like "I prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery."
