“We must dissent from the indifference. We must dissent from the apathy. We must dissent from the fear, the hatred and the mistrust. We must dissent from a nation that has buried its head in the sand, waiting in vain for the needs of its poor, its elderly, and its sick to disappear and just blow away.

We must dissent because America can do better, because America has no choice but to do better.” NeedsGovernmentJobsAmericaYoungChoicesLeftNationsWaitingCan DoPoorMoralVisionPovertyHatredSickBlowDisappearAbsenceVainIndifferenceSandBuriedApathyElderlyDissentMistrustMoral Leadership Book:Supreme Justice: Speeches and Writings Source: Supreme Justice: Speeches and Writings
