“The progress of science in furnishing the government with means of espionage is not likely to stop with wire tapping. Ways may some day be developed by which the government, without removing papers from secret drawers, can reproduce them in court, and by which it will be enabled to expose to a jury the most intimate occurrences of the home. Advances in the psychic and related sciences may bring means of exploring unexpressed beliefs, thoughts and emotions. 'That places the liberty of every man in the hands of every petty officer' was said by James Otis of much lesser intrusions than these.” WayMayHomeGovernmentSecretSecurityPaperCourtIntimateSomedayPapersJuryDrawers Author:Louis D.

“TECHNICALITY, n. In an English court a man named Home was tried for slander in having accused his neighbor of murder. His exact words were: "Sir Thomas Holt hath taken a cleaver and stricken his cook upon the head, so that one side of the head fell upon one shoulder and the other side upon the other shoulder." The defendant was acquitted by instruction of the court, the learned judges holding that the words did not charge murder, for they did not affirm the death of the cook, that being only an inference.” MenHomeSidesTakenJudgingMurderCookingCourtNeighborShouldersCooksInstructionAccusedSlanderInferenceTechnicalitiesCleaver Book:Delphi Complete Works of Ambrose Bierce (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Ambrose Bierce (Illustrated)

I believe that from 1933 I truly represented the Lutheran-Christian outlook on the Jewish question - as I revealed before the court - but that I returned home after eight years' imprisonment as a completely different person.” YearsBelieveLooksPersonsSaidDifferentFactsHomeChristianPastAsksI BelieveTraditionCourtEightOutlookConcealedImprisonmentAnti SemiticLutherans Author:Martin Niemoller
