No fair looking it up. We're all on the honor system up in here...
“Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.”

That's an easy one. I'll let someone else take a stab.

Don't know... somebody who was trying to sound deep but failed, though.

My guess is Reagan. My second choice would be JFK.

I heard Wilkow quote this recently, but I can't recall the source.

Whomever it was, they were correct.

I thought it was Churchill, I was wrong so I was impatient and looked it up, turns out it was a Frenchman. Here it is in the original French.
La démocratie étend la sphère de l'indépendance individuelle, le socialisme la resserre. La démocratie donne toute sa valeur possible à chaque homme, le socialisme fait de chaque homme un agent, un instrument, un chiffre. La démocratie et le socialisme ne se tiennent que par un mot, l'égalité ; mais remarquez la différence : la démocratie veut l'égalité dans la liberté, et le socialisme veut l'égalité dans la gêne et dans la servitude

In the real world a word like 'equality' or 'equilibrium', have no meaning. Inequalities rule: In Nature, political economy, physics, etc.

I have no idea who's quote it is but difference is democracy is a form of governance and socialism is an ideology, neither of which are preferred.
