"Men live their lives trapped in an eternal present, between the mists of memory and the sea of shadow that is all we know of the days to come."

Remember that every government service, every offer of government - financed security, is paid for in the loss of personal freedom... In the days to come, whenever a voice is raised telling you to let the government do it, analyze very carefully to see whether the suggested service is worth the personal freedom which you must forgo in return for such service.
