QUOTES

Civil Rights
The constitution does not provide for first and second class citizens.

Freedom
Freedom is an indivisible word. If we want to enjoy it, and fight for it, we must be prepared to extend it to everyone, whether they are rich or poor, whether they agree with us or not, no matter what their race or the color of their skin.

Whenever we take away the liberties of those whom we hate we are opening the way to loss of liberty for those we love.

Education
Education is the mother of leadership.

Tolerance
No man has a right in America to treat any other man "tolerantly" for tolerance is the assumption of superiority. Our liberties are equal rights of every citizen.

Miscellaneous
I believe the moral losses of expediency always far outweigh the temporary gains.
