There Is No Fury Like That Against

Reputation, Like A Face, Is The Symbol Of Its Possessor And Creator, And Another Can Use It Only As A Mask.

There Is No Fury Like That Against One Who, We Fear, May Succeed In Making Us Disloyal To Beliefs We Hold With Passion, But Have Not Really Won.

We Recently Had A Referendum In New York About Extending The Forest Preserve. The City Voted For It By A Large Majority; Yet As I Walk The Streets I Do Not See Afforestation Written With Conviction On The Harried Faces Of My Fellow Citizens.

There Is Something Monstrous In Commands Couched In Invented And Unfamiliar Language; An Alien Master Is The Worst Of All. The Language Of The Law Must Not Be Foreign To The Ears Of Those Who Are To Obey It.

Political Agitation, By The Passions It Arouses Or The Convictions It Engenders, May In Fact Stimulate Men To The Violation Of The Law. Detestation Of Existing Policies Is Easily Transformed Into Forcible Resistance Of The Authority Which Puts Them In Execution, And It Would Be Folly To Disregard The Causal Relation Between The Two. Yet To Assimilate Agitation, Legitimate As Such, With Direct Incitement To Violent Resistance, Is To Disregard The Tolerance Of All Methods Of Political Agitation Which In Normal Times Is A Safeguard Of Free Government.
