"Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it .... The spirit of liberty is the spirit which is not too sure that it is right; the spirit of liberty if the spirit which seeks to understand the minds of other men and women; the spirit of liberty is the spirit which weighs their interests alongside its own without bias."
----Learned Hand. "The Spirit of Liberty" 1944
