Tell the FBI that the kidnappers should pick out a judge that Nixon wants back.

The truth is that a vast restructuring of our society is needed if remedies are to become available to the average person. Without that restructuring the good will that holds society together will be slowly dissipated... It is that sense of futility which permeates the present series of protests and dissents. Where there is a persistent sense of futility, there is violence; and that is where we are today.

The right to dissent is the only thing that makes life tolerable for a judge of an appellate court... the affairs of government could not be conducted by democratic standards without it.

The Second Amendment reveals a profound principle of American government - the principle of civilian ascendency over the military.

The use of violence as an instrument of persuasion is therefore inviting and seems to the discontented to be the only effective protest.

The framers of the constitution knew human nature as well as we do. They too had lived in dangerous days; they too knew the suffocating influence of orthodoxy and standardized thought. They weighed the compulsions for restrained speech and thought against the abuses of liberty. They chose liberty.

I would rather create a precedent than find one.
