“So long as governments set the example of killing their enemies, private individuals will occasionally kill theirs.”
“Today, when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it cannot be repeated too often that the Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals -- that it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government -- that it is not a charter _for_ government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection _against_ the government.”
“The general will rules in society as the private will governs each separate individual.”
“When unlimited and unrestricted by individual rights a government is men's deadliest enemy.”
“The enemy was irony and truth and hypocrisy, that was the real enemy. That was the enemy that was killing him.”
“Why is it considered so glorious to kill an enemy, when it is not considered contemptible to create one?”
