The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.

It is the spirit and not the form of law that keeps justice alive.

Churchmen are quick to defend religious freedom; lawyers were never so universally aroused as by President Roosevelt's Court bill; newspapers are most alert to civil liberties when there is a hint of press censorship in the air. And educators become perturbed at every effort to curb academic freedom. But too seldom do all of these become militant when ostensibly the rights of only one group are threatened. They do not always react to the truism that when the rights of any individual or group are chipped away, the freedom of all erodes.

The success of any legal system is measured by its fidelity to the universal ideal of justice.

The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.

The man of character, sensitive to the meaning of what he is doing, will know how to discover the ethical paths in the maze of possible behavior.

The censor's sword pierces deeply into the heart of free expression.
