We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men … We proclaim ourselves, as indeed we are, the defenders of freedom, wherever it continues to exist in the world, but we cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home.

I simply cannot accept that there are on every story two equal and logical sides to an argument.

No one can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.
