Quote of Note

"The American ideal was stated by Emerson in his essay on politics. 'A man has a right to be employed, to be trusted, to be loved, to be revered.' It does many men little good to stay alive and free and propertied, if they cannot work."

--William O. Douglas,
U. S. Supreme Court justice, Dissent,
Barsky v. Regents; 1954
