Idée d’jour

It would indeed be ironic if, in the name of national defence, we would sanction the subversion of one of those liberties which make the defence of our nation worthwhile.
— Earl Warren, jurist (1891-1974)

Mr. Warren was a Supreme Court Justice, best known as the chair of the infamous "Warren Commission" that investigated the Kennedy Assasination, and concluded it was the act of a lone man. Good quote, regardless of the source.
