Mises was not simply a great scholar, however. He was a heroic example for those that came after. Time and time again, Mises faced political pressure and incentives to substitute his beliefs for a more lucrative career. At every point, he refused to compromise truth for comfort, tirelessly defending the ideas vital for future civilizations to prosper and thrive.
Lew Rockwell founded the Mises Institute to promote Mises’s work and has dedicated its operation to following our namesake’s courageous example.

In the words of Mises:
“No one can find a safe way out for himself if society is sweeping towards destruction. Therefore everyone, in his own interests, must thrust himself vigorously into the intellectual battle. None can stand aside with unconcern; the interests of everyone hang on the result. Whether he chooses or not, every man is drawn into the great historical struggle, the decisive battle into which our epoch has plunged us.”
