How modern do you mean? 17th, 18th, 19th or 20th century?
Hell, I don't know where to begin. Kant, Hobbes, Hume, Spinoza, Voltaire, Rousseau, Hegel, Russell, Kierkegaard, Sartre, Marcuse? Sorry, they're not in strict chronological order.

Go a little farther back to the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century.

Is this really a famous quote, or are you pulling our collective chain?

Okay, a day has passed with no response. So let's try another one altogether.

Let's see, it had to be a Founding Father, yet the remark about no master means it couldn't have been any of the Southerners like Thomas Jefferson or George Washington since they were themselves masters of slaves.

I say Thomas Paine, an English immigrant.
