“Where do human rights arise, anyway? In the sun, in the moon, in the daily paper, in the conscientious heart? They arise in responsible government. Where does security lie, anyway--security against the thief, the murderer, the footpad? In brotherly love? Not at all. It lies in government. Where does control lie--control of smoking in the theater, of nuclear energy in the planet? Control lies in government, because government is people.” — E.B. White
