Quote of the Day (Robert Jackson, on the Dangers of Fanaticism)


“[W]e must not forget that in our country are evangelists and zealots of many different political, economic, and religious persuasions whose fanatical conviction is that all thought is divinely classified into two kinds – that which is their own and that which is false and dangerous.”–Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Robert Jackson, opinion in American Communications Assn. v. Douds (1950)
